Maybe it is usefull to know where the autoconf binairy is. You can check this with

	Source code
1	locate autoconf \| grep bin

or find it manually (it is likely to be in /usr/bin).

Version 2.59 is not detected through this command. To detect this, edit the file "admin/detect-autoconf.sh". There is a line in it which looks like

	Source code
1	KDE_AUTOCONF_VERS="-2.58 -2.57 257 -2.54 -2.53a -2.53 -2.52 -2.5x"

You can change that to

	Source code
1	KDE_AUTOCONF_VERS="-2.59 -2.58 -2.57 257 -2.54 -2.53a -2.53 -2.52 -2.5x"

If you're sure that you have the correct version installed, you can also simply do this:

	Source code
1	WANT_AUTOCONF="2.5" make -f Makefile.cvs

I found autoconf on my system its locate in /usr/local/bin call autoconf259 and autoconf253

Source code

# ./autoconf253 -V
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.53
Written by David J. MacKenzie and Akim Demaille.

# ./autoconf259 -V
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59
Written by David J. MacKenzie and Akim Demaille.

i added 2.59 in detect-autoconf.sh. And he need autoheader

	Source code
1 2 3 4 5 6 7	# make -f Makefile.cvs This Makefile is only for the CVS repository autoheader: not found * AUTOHEADER NOT FOUND!. * KDE requires autoheader 2.53 or newer *** Error code 1

I am using FreeBSD and i can not find the autoheader in ports.
