>Description:
When doing a "make" in devel/php-gettext, the build stops with
 message like:
automake17 -don't know how to make

When looking in "devel/automake17" I cant find any Makefile.
I don't know if this is general or if something has happen with my 
pkgsrc:
"
 amd64: {16} cd /usr/pkgsrc/devel/automake17
amd64: {17} ll
total 8
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel   512 Mar 27 06:34 CVS
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  2929 Mar 27 03:12 README.html
"
is all I get.
Anyhow I thought it was better to report it.
I fetched the pkgsrc file this weekend so it quit new: 
the pkgsrc.tar.gz has a size of 22637035


>How-To-Repeat:
do a "make" in
 /usr/pkgsrc/devel/automake17
>Fix:
My problem was fixed by changing:
AUTOMAKE_REQD?=         1.7 
to 
AUTOMAKE_REQD?=         1.8
in
../../www/php4/Makefile.module
