New description:

 I've been trying to install qtiplot using the latest Portfile (78293) but
 it fails with:
 {{{
 :info:build Cannot find file:
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_aqua_qtiplot/work/qtiplot-0.9.8.3/3rdparty/QTeXEngine/QTeXEngine.pro.
 }}}
 (full build log attached)

 Looking at the Portfile I suspect a minor typo on line 113:
 {{{
     copy ${workpath}/QTeXEngine ${worksrcpath}/3rdparty/QTexEngine
 }}}

 Symlinking 3rdparty/QTexEngine to 3rdparty/QTeXEngine seemed to fix the
 problem so I wonder if the code should be copied to
 ${worksrcpath}/3rdparty/QTeXEngine ?

 I'm a new user so I'm not sure how/if I could submit a patch, but I
 thought I ought to bring this to your attention.

 Thanks for all your hard work - I've spent *days* trying to compile and
 install this manually and Macports has made it so much simpler!

Comment:

 I assume you are correct about this typo. "QTexEngine" should be
 "QTeXEngine". I assume the problem would only affect users who have a
 case-sensitive filesystem. (Do you?)
