>Description:
Building security/mit-krb5 from pkgsrc results in the following error message:

===> Building for mit-krb5-1.4.2nb3
(cd include && /install/pkg/bin/bmake krb5/autoconf.h)

>How-To-Repeat:
It can be reproduced simply by trying to build mit-krb5 on a current pkgsrc with autoconf 2.60.
>Fix:
Regarding current posts[1] at the krb5 mailing list this problem might be the result of incompatibilities between mit-krb5 and autoconf 2.60 which is the current standard in pkgsrc. I'm not very familar with autoconf but I could temporarely fix it in this way:

$ cd /usr/pkgsrc/security/mit-krb5
$ bmake clean
$ bmake extract
$ FILES=`find . -name Makefile.in`;\
for i in $FILES;\
do cp $i /tmp/Makefile.in.tmp \
cat /tmp/Makefile.in.tmp|\
sed s/"# @lib_frag@"/"@lib_frag@"/|\
sed s/"# @libobj_frag@"/"@libobj_frag@"/\
> $i
done
$ bmake install

Maybe this could be transformed in a patch in and been provided in ./pkgsrc/security/mit-krb5/patches ...
