Look at the autoconf-wrapper Makefile:
....
WRAPPED_TOOLS?= autoconf autoheader autom4te autoreconf autoscan \
autoupdates ifnames
...
do-install:
...
.for tool in ${WRAPPED_TOOLS}
@${LN} -s ${PORTNAME} ${PREFIX}/bin/${tool}
.endfor
The do-install target is failing because there is a file,
/usr/local/bin/autoconf, where it wants to put a symlink. Remove this
file (and any other blocking files) and try again. Probably this is
just left from some broken deinstallation of autoconf-wrapper, as the
port has no known CONFLICTS, but you may wish to check if the blocking
files are listed as belonging to a particular port in your package
database with 'pkg_info -W filename' before deleting them. If they
are listed as belonging to some other port, then either your package
database is corrupted, or some port needs to have CONFLICTS
registered. In the latter case, you should file a PR.
