For the record, the gtk2 mac integration library, and our code that makes use of it, Is completely centered around an OSX app bundle deployment. Macports is like a unix style repository for OSX, and anything installed by it would be a classic unix style installation. Therefor, in this situation, our OSX integration code is completely useless. Which is fine. Anyone installing via macports is probably looking for a classic unix experience anyway. (Someone like Bob Hyartt for instance who probably doesn’t care for what Apple has to offer anyway XD).
