Building

First, you have to install the following Ports:

gnu-autoconf-2.59 Automatically configure source code on many Un*x platforms gnu-automake-1.9.6 GNU Standards-compliant Makefile generator (GNU unmodified) gnu-libtool-1.5.18 Generic shared library support script (GNU unmodified)

now you have to copy the m4 files from /usr/X11R6/share/aclocal/ to /usr/local/gnu-autotools/share/aclocal/

 cp -R /usr/X11R6/share/aclocal/ /usr/local/gnu-autotools/share/

 cd codeblocks
 export PATH=/usr/local/gnu-autotools/bin:$PATH
 ./bootstrap
 ./configure
 make
 make install
