Hmm, wonder why one would upgrade to such a breaking version of automake ? And with no port for automake 1.12 ?

It's a long-standing issue: #37438 -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38443#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Yeah, still a shame that there are no releases that would make such a change known...

Sadly there is no package built either, because the python25 symlinks are still broken:

{{{ Error: org.macports.activate for port rpm returned: Image error: /opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/rpm/__init__.py already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port rpm. Use 'port -f activate rpm' to force the activation. }}}

That's because the `rpm` that rpm2html depends on is very old. I made a new issue about this: #38456 -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38443#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

It's different in the newer pythons of course. In any case, moving files in pre-activate is completely wrong and rpm should stop doing that. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38443#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
