I see what happened. The cmake port is in transition but incomplete. My master build script sees the CMakeLists.txt file and tries to build with cmake rather than automake. Therefore the configure file never gets built. My tdemultimedia script is still written for automake.

A while ago I created a special environment variable for these transitional packages to ignore the cmake files and force an individual build to use automake. I had to use that variable to build tdesdk (although I think the tdesdk port is now complete).

No harm done. :) When you folks start a cmake port would you kindly post a quick announcement that porting has started?
