Several gnome ports seem to be failing to update with a similar error all of a
sudden:
config.status: error: Something went wrong bootstrapping makefile
fragments
for automatic dependency tracking. Try re-running configure with the
'--disable-dependency-tracking' option to at least be able to build
the package (albeit without support for automatic dependency
tracking).
e.g.
https://lists.macports.org/pipermail/macports-tickets/2018-April/242217.html
and several other ports on my machine at home. At this moment, I'm updating
some PPC machines, if that is relevant to this error.
Adding the suggested configure flag "--disable-dependency-tracking" to each
Portfile seems to fix them.
Did something change recently?
