DarwinPorts PATHs

[subatomic]

hey all,

I've been trying to get kdelibs installed with DarwinPorts (OK, many say Fink is easier but I've already started and I want to finish).

All the deps installed without error but KDE requires autoconf 2.53. I had 2.59 and 2.60 in there already and then installed 2.53. The real problem is that the path where 2.53 is located /usr/local/bin isn't found.

Here is the entire error message

--->  Building kdelibs3 with target all
Error: Target com.apple.build returned: shell command "cd /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_kde_kdelibs3/work/kdelibs-3.5.1 && ./CompileScript.sh" returned error 1

*** YOU'RE USING autoheader (GNU Autoconf) 2.60.
*** KDE requires autoheader 2.53 or newer
make: *** [cvs] Error 1
kdelibs3-3.5.1-3 cvs-build failed!

and here is echo $PATH

/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/Developer/Qt/bin

my question is obviously how do I get DP to find autoconf 2.53?
where is DP getting the paths from and how do I add /usr/local/bin to it?
