I did understand that the error message suggested to user autoreconf. I can read what I typed in my first post. But perhaps I should have been clearer in my question. Is there any chance anyone in this forum can provide an example or any instructions on *how* to use autoreconf, and in this context - installing mysql50-server? Or would anyone care to find another solution? I don't want to waste anyones time, which is why I googled this subject first, and even found a book on GNU autotools, but I simply don't have the time to read/learn it to resolve this issue. Any 1., 2., 3. style instruction would be useful for not just myself but any other FreeBSD/Linux noobs who have the impression that after thoroughly searching for an existing solution in the net, and not finding one, they may graciously/patiently be helped here. And then, in the future, should I find others with similar issues here, I knowing how to user autoreconf, would try to take more than 3 seconds to write more than a (sarcastic and redundant) one-liner reply to help others. I hope this is how good forums work. But then again, these fora have a lot of viewers and very few people attempting solutions. Perhaps I joined the wrong one? Thanks

It appears the preview function likes to strip all carriage returns from posts... and my last reply has been transformed from a few paragraphs to a single block. Great

gffindxmlattr
GFFINDXMLATTR(1) GFFINDXMLATTR(1)
NAME
gffindxmlattr - Find XML extended attributes by XPath query
SYNOPSIS
gffindxmlattr [ -d depth ] [ -F delim ] [ XPath | -f XPath-file ] path
DESCRIPTION
gffindxmlattr finds XML extended attributes by a specified XPath expression, and displays path names and the corresponding XML extended
attribute names. When a file is specified, XML extended attributes associated to the file are searched if there is the read permission.
When a directory is specified, files or directories within the depth are recursively searched. When 0 is specified for the depth, the
specified directory is searched. If the depth is not specified, all files and directories under the specified directory are searched. If
the negative value is specified, gffindxmlattr returns error. Directories that do not have execute permission cannot be searched.
gffindxmlattr displays path names and the corresponding XML extended attribute separated by the delim.
OPTIONS
-d depth
specifies the depth to be searched recursively.
-F delim
specifies a delimiter that separates the path name and the XML extended attribute name. By detault, the delimiter is TAB.
-f XPath-file
specifies a file that contains XPath expression.
-? displays usage.
