Thanks gentlemen; I was not running portmaster as root.

When I re-run portmaster -a as root, I get the following:

===>>> Starting check for runtime dependencies

      You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
      by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
      If you really wish to overwrite the old port of devel/automake
      without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
      in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/devel/automake.




Suggestions?

Thank you,
Ed
