>Description:
The graphics/dia port apparently needs libtool installed, yet this
is not checked properly and the build fails in an unsuitable way.
This is *not* necessarily a problem with the dia port, which does
set USE_LIBTOOL in it's Makefile.
In any case, however, this failure mode is a bad one. Either
$PORTSDIR/devel/libtool is absolutely required (which would be
undesirable), then it shouldn't be skipped and the build should
abort there.
Or, which is *strongly* preferrable and in fact does in general
work for other tools using libtool, an installed version of libtool
is not required.
