>Description:
A "make install clean" in ports/ftp/wget won't install wget because it needs autoconf (ports/devel/autoconf), but it doesn't automatically detect it and I had to manually install autoconf.
My setup is a "minimal installation" plus man & ports. I compiled & installed bash2, links and python from the ports before trying to install wget.
>How-To-Repeat:
I think that installing the minimal system, adding man and ports and trying to compile wget should be sufficient to reproduce this problem.
Unfortunately I don't have a machine to test it on and cannot take the "problem machine" out of production...
>Fix:
Maybe just adding autoconf to the dependencies of wget? it should do the trick...
