New description:

 I was trying to install meld and it depends on gnome-keyring. Which failed
 to compile, looking at the log file I saw:

 {{{
 :info:configure configure.in:4: error: 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER': this macro is
 obsolete.
 :info:configure     You should use the 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' macro instead.
 :info:configure /opt/local/share/aclocal-1.13/obsolete-err.m4:12:
 AM_CONFIG_HEADER is expanded from...
 }}}

 So I manually changed gnome-keyring's configure.in file to use
 AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, this allowed the compile to succeed.
 Also, looking around I find quite a few patches using this file:

 {{{
 $ cat  ./sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/gnome/gnome-
 mime-data/files/patch-automake-1.13.diff
 }}}

 It would seem this same patch is needed for gnome-keyring.

Comment:

 Duplicate of #37428. This was fixed in December. Please run "sudo port
 selfupdate" to receive this and other fixes.

 Yes, many ports need to be patched to be compatible with automake 1.13 and
 up. Yes, many ports have patchfiles with the name patch-automake-1.13.diff
 to do this. But each port needs a different patch. The patchfiles are only
 named the same to make it clear what the patch is for.

 Please remember to use WikiFormatting when writing in Trac, and to fill in
 the Port and Cc fields properly. See the ticket filing instructions linked
 prominently at the top of the New Ticket page.
