Please don't just quote log snippets when reporting build failures. You need to attach the full main.log, every time, or the maintainers do not have all the information they need.

Sure, added the log.

avahi +python311 installs normally as before. Something goes wrong with that hack in the portfile.

Check the symlink? Run configure and ls -l the symlink.

I see what might be the issue, there might be two versions of automake installed and the glob therefore causes an issue.

avahi: fix py-compile symlink

Several versions of automake might be installed.

Fixes: #70138
