---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 I just installed macports 1.7.0 on a fresh macbook with the sole purpose
 to be able to use rdesktop. I had the hardest time getting it to compile.

 First of all, rdesktop is missing a dependency for pkgconfig. Because the
 output of bootstrap is suppressed, the only error I got was:

 {{{
 configure: error: Selected sound system is not available.
 }}}


 Secondly, in order to load pkg.m4 I had to set the following environment
 variable:


 {{{
 ACLOCAL='aclocal -I /opt/local/share/aclocal'
 }}}


 otherwise configure would complain like this:


 {{{
 configure: WARNING: pkg-config not available, cannot check for ao
 configure: WARNING: pkg-config not available, cannot check for alsa
 configure: WARNING: pkg-config not available, cannot check for samplerate
 configure: error: Selected sound system is not available.
 }}}
