Comment(by kevin.pulo@…):

 It looks like this might be a problem with the openmotif portfile,
 possibly related to the recent change in
 https://trac.macports.org/changeset/43207.

 Also note that the error message shown is not the full error, to see that
 you need to do

 cd
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_openmotif/work/openmotif-2.3.1
 make all

 I'm not sure if the incomplete error message is a problem with macports or
 what.

 Anyway, since I'm not a macports expert and I just needed to get the
 openmotif port installed any way I could, the solution for me was to to
 edit
 /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/x11/openmotif/Portfile
 and add:

                  --with-fontconfig-config=${prefix}/bin/freetype-config  \
 +                --with-freetype-includes=/usr/X11/include/freetype2 \
                  --enable-jpeg   \

 This then allowed openmotif to build and install correctly, although I'm
 sure that this "fix" is nowhere near general enough to be included in the
 actual portfile, but someone more familiar with macports should be able to
 fix that.
