 Reporter:  anotherperson2011@…         |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect                      |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal                      |  Milestone:
Component:  ports                       |    Version:  2.1.2
 Keywords:  libxml libxml2 build error  |       Port:  libxml2
----------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Ticket re-opened per request from MacPorts as libxml is not supposed to
 depend upon libxml - however it does. 'main.log' file attached. Console
 log states:

 {{{
 --->  Computing dependencies for xml2
 --->  Dependencies to be installed: libxml
 --->  Configuring libxml
 Error: org.macports.configure for port libxml returned: autoreconf
 failure: command execution failed
 Error: Failed to install libxml
 Please see the log file for port libxml for details:
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_libxml/libxml/main.log
 Error: The following dependencies were not installed: libxml
 Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1
