libtool and ImageMagick problems

[Jochem Huhmann]

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this is the same problem as in the "libtool woes"  
thread or not.

On both a Tiger system with an existing and upgraded MacPorts system  
and a Leopard system with freshly installed MacPorts, trying to  
install ImageMagick results in all ImageMagick tools ending up as  
libtool-wrappers instead of the actual binaries:

$ convert
/opt/local/bin/convert: error: `/opt/local/bin/.libs/convert' does  
not exist
This script is just a wrapper for convert.
See the libtool documentation for more information.

Indeed looking into those scripts seems to indicate that there's some  
trouble with libtool:

$ head /opt/local/bin/convert
#! /bin/sh

# utilities/convert - temporary wrapper script for .libs/convert
# Generated by ltmain.sh (GNU libtool 1.2569 2008/01/24 16:16:26) 2.1a
#
# The utilities/convert program cannot be directly executed until all  
the libtool
# libraries that it depends on are installed.
#
# This wrapper script should never be moved out of the build directory.
# If it is, it will not operate correctly.

Sieving through the build/install output for ImageMagick yields some  
interesting things. libWand and libMagick have been built, but have  
not been installed at all:

libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish /opt/ 
local/lib'

   /bin/sh ./libtool --silent   --mode=install /usr/bin/install  
'utilities/convert' '/opt/local/var/macports/build/ 
_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports
.org_release_ports_graphics_ImageMagick/work/destroot/opt/local/bin/ 
convert'
libtool: install: warning: `magick/libMagick.la' has not been  
installed in `/opt

libtool: install: warning: `wand/libWand.la' has not been installed  
in `/opt/loc

libtool: install: warning: `/opt/local/var/macports/build/

ImageMagick
-6.3.8/magick/libMagick.la' has not been installed in `/opt/local/lib'
libtool: install: warning: cannot relink `utilities/convert'


Installing libtool from MacPorts and rebuilding makes no difference.  
Symlinking the resulting /opt/local/bin/glibtool to /opt/local/bin/ 
libtool then (and rebuilding) results in working ImageMagick  
binaries, though.

I'm a bit lost here. What's going on?
