groff will not install

[internetdetritus@…]

This is apparently a different issue than #24922 and #22566 because I have tried installing texinfo first, and I have also tried installing groff from a fresh macports install (therefore no migration) and the port still fails to install.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install Macports 1.9.2
2. port selfupdate
3. port install texinfo (per #24922)
4. port install groff

Here is what I see in the log:

I can execute that make command manually and it seems to proceed, but the build then fails after this. The error for that subsequent attempt looks nearly identical to #24922, but as specified in that ticket, installing texinfo doesn't help.

Please clean groff and try again, and if it fails again, attach the entire main.log file.

sudo port clean groff
sudo port install groff
