macports Error: Port m4 not found

[Jacob, Raymond A Jr. CIV SPAWARSYSCEN-ATLANTIC, 58150]

Question: I see m4 in the .../devel/m4 directory and I see a PortFile
too.
Is there another file that I should check?
I am using subversion to access macports, in case that makes a
difference.

Thank you,
raymond

description     GNU macro processor

long_description \
     GNU `m4' is an implementation of the traditional Unix  
macro         \
     processor.  It is mostly SVR4 compatible, although it has  
some      \
     extensions (for example, handling more than 9 positional parameters
\
     to macros). `m4' also has built-in functions for including  
files,   \
     running shell commands, doing arithmetic, etc. Autoconf needs  
GNU   \
     `m4' for generating `configure' scripts, but not for running them.
