Description
Attempted to build
lftp @4.8.3
which installed automake as a dependency. The build of lftp failed with the following messages:
Error: Failed to build lftp: command execution failed
Error: See \
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_net_lftp/lftp/main.log \
for details.
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.
Error: Processing of port lftp failed
Inspecting file .../main.log referenced above found the following lines:
:info:build
/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_net_lftp/lftp/work/lftp-4.8.3/build-aux/missing: line 81: automake-1.15: command not found
:info:build WARNING: 'automake-1.15' is missing on your system.
:info:build You should only need it if you modified 'Makefile.am' or
:info:build 'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
:info:build The 'automake' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
:info:build <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
:info:build It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
:info:build <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
:info:build <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
:info:build <http://www.perl.org/>
:info:build make: * [Makefile.in] Error 1
As I mentioned, automake was installed as a dependency. Checking shows the following:
$ which automake
/opt/local/bin/automake
$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.16.1

Checking whether version 1.15 was available showed the following:
$ port info 'automake*'
-- output shows the following:
automake @1.16.1 (devel)
automake17 @1.7.9_2 (devel)
Checking the bug tracker found the following:

Following the link to #54491 shows the following:
#54491 closed defect (fixed)
lftp @ 4.7.7.1 automake version error
I now am finding the bug with lftp @4.8.3, so this bug seems to keep returning from the dead.
