libmng: autoreconf fails due to automake 1.12 incompatibility

[nicmclee@…]

During installation of qtiplot I get the following error:

Configuring libmng
Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: shell command failed (see log for details)
Error: Failed to install libmng
Log for libmng is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_graphics_libmng/libmng/main.log
Error: The following dependencies were not installed: qt4-mac libmng openssl sqlite3 libedit
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

This is probably #29223. Please "sudo port clean libmng" and try again.

I tried this and it does not work. Also I had cleaned all ports before trying to install qtiplot.

Ok, then please attach the new main.log. The one you attached here contains lines that say "Skipping completed" which show that it was not from a clean attempt.

new log

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Ok, so the real error from the new complete log that we need to deal with is:

:debug:configure Executing proc-pre-org.macports.configure-configure-0
:info:configure configure.in:18: error: automatic de-ANSI-fication support has been removed
:info:configure /opt/local/share/aclocal-1.12/protos.m4:12: AM_C_PROTOTYPES is expanded from...
:info:configure configure.in:18: the top level
:info:configure autom4te: /opt/local/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 1
:info:configure aclocal: error: /opt/local/bin/autom4te failed with exit status: 1
:info:configure autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1

I guess this is an incompatibility with automake 1.12.
