Hello!

    I'm net/quagga port maintainer and I'm not familar with autotools. 
My port is needed to modify configure.ac. When I do so, my build process 
run as described:
1. configure is running
2. I get errors
cd . && /bin/sh /usr/ports/net/quagga/work/quagga-0.98.5/missing --run 
aclocal-1.9 -I m4
aclocal-1.9: not found

autoconf
autoconf: not found

3. configure is running again and build process continues

Question: is this OK? May You tell me what should I do to run autotools 
properly? Thanks in advance.

With respect,
    Boris Kovalenko
