LibreCAD 2.0.8_0.darwin failure on destroot

[ernesto.migliore@…]

Hi, LibreCAD installation fails on mac osx 10.10.5 with the following trace log

--->  Verifying checksums for LibreCAD
--->  Extracting LibreCAD
--->  Configuring LibreCAD
--->  Building LibreCAD
--->  Staging LibreCAD into destroot
Error: org.macports.destroot for port LibreCAD returned: command execution failed
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port LibreCAD failed

The failure in the destroot phase is:

sh: macdeployqt: command not found

I also see earlier errors in the build phase. The errors are not formatted correctly (missing newlines at the end of each error, causing them all to run together on a single line); I've tried to clean it up here for legibility:

The qt4-mac port was recently rearranged and file are now installed in different places than before. The LibreCAD port may need to be updated for those changes.

The Boost and muParser errors are already in #42555 and #43276, those are not critical though as I see the application bundle in my work directory properly working.

The command is being manually called in the overridden destroot phase, in fact replacing

    system -W ${worksrcpath} "macdeployqt LibreCAD.app"

with

    system -W ${worksrcpath} "$prefix/libexec/qt4/bin/macdeployqt LibreCAD.app"

is enough to complete destroot target.

This makes me wonder if this is the right approach rather than going through the actual qmake's scripts considering scripts/build-osx.sh uses the ${QT_PATH}/macdeployqt command.

Does it translate into something that a non-expert MacPorts user (aka me) can do to fix the problem?

Either ​create a local repository and perform the mentioned change in the Portfile or just wait.

I'm attaching the (trivial) patchfile.
