gd2 needs to depend on libtool. Please add this as a dependency so that it will build. gd2 needs automake and autoconf too, so please add those too or the configure process will go wrong:

If users want a quick fix for this problem: sudo port install autoconf automake libtool

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Assigning to maintainer.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Confirmed. Will fix by adding dependencies on automake and libtool. (Dependency on autoconf was already added in #16119.)

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Fixed in r38823. Thanks Bjorn for the report and the tip on how to fix it, and thanks everyone for your patience in getting this resolved.

While trying to build gd2 today, port is still returning gd2 2.0.35, and I am still seeing the error as above. As stated above, "sudo port install autoconf automake libtool" fixes the problem. Except autoconf 2.62_0 has its own dependency problems. To build autoconf, one must first build gettext.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

2.0.35 is the current version of gd2. Please sudo port sync to get the updated port definition, then sudo port clean --work gd2 and sudo port install gd2 to fix it.
