Removing pango-devel most likely disables gtk, thus disabling
compilation of virt-p2v.  Which is one way to fix it, but I suppose it
depends on if you need virt-p2v ...

As the error message says, automake is missing.  I suppose removing
pango also removed automake for whatever reason, or you removed or
changed the version of automake while you were removing pango.

I cannot reproduce the original problem right now, but I'm looking at it.
