MacPorts and a2ps

Hello all,

I need help with installing a2ps.  I think I am getting a fairly simple
error.  I am brand new to MacPorts and recently installed it just so that I
could install a2ps.  I did contact the maintainer of a2ps,
mike at pentangle.net, but he is on vacation for three weeks. I believe I
installed MacPorts correctly and believe I have successfully installed the
aspell port but am getting the following error when trying to install a2ps:

Error: Target org.macports.patch returned: error copying
"/usr/share/libtool/config.guess": no such file or directory
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.


I am not sure if this is the right user list for this.  I did read as many
things as I could find at MacPorts.org and did not find anything pertaining
to this problem.  

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Chad
