 https://guide.macports.org/#installing.shell

 The PATH environment variable is for the user's convenience only. MacPorts
 itself does not use it. MacPorts uses the value of `binpath` in
 macports.conf.

 ticket and saw the above responses, but have no idea what they mean.

 You're probably referring to some spam in this ticket that I have now
 removed. There was an automated process that was CC'ing and un-CC'ing
 itself from MacPorts tickets. The process has been fixed to not do that
 anymore, and I have been removing the resultant spam from tickets.

 > too much for me.  will try to find another way to do what i want to do.
 if there is anybody out there, you can remove this problem.

 If you don't wish to troubleshoot the problem further, that's fine, and
 I'm closing the ticket. If you wish to continue, please re-open the
 ticket. It does sound like the problem is specific to your computer
 however.

 We [comment:5 already established] that MacPorts thinks automake 1.15 is
 installed, but gimp-lqr-plugin thinks automake 1.10 is installed. The
 command I would suggest you run is:

 {{{
 /opt/local/bin/automake --version
 }}}

 That should tell us what version of automake is actually installed. If it
 doesn't match the version MacPorts thinks is installed (for example: if it
 says 1.10, but MacPorts says 1.15 is installed), then something outside of
 MacPorts may have overwritten your MacPorts automake with an older
 version. You could get back to the MacPorts-provided version by running:

 {{{
 sudo port -f deactivate automake
 sudo port activate automake
 }}}

 However, if something outside of MacPorts overwrote your automake files,
 we have no way of knowing if it also overwrote files belonging to other
 MacPorts ports, so the safest solution at that point would be to
 [https://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html
 uninstall MacPorts], including removing the /opt/local directory, then
 reinstall MacPorts and the ports you want. That way you can be sure
 nothing is in /opt/local that shouldn't be there.
