Hi Jeff,
Is the gimp install supposed to take hours?
Since MacPorts builds its packages from source by default, much
depends on what's being installed and speed at which your machine
can compile the software. In your case, the GTK graphics library
needed to be built and installed (as Gimp needs it and you didn't
already have it), and GTK takes quite a bit of time to build. I
haven't tried installing the Gimp myself, but I think it may take a
while to build as well. Furthermore, your iBook G4 will take
noticeably longer than newer processor to build large programs like
these.
Given all this, I wouldn't be terribly surprised for it to take
several hours.
Kind regards,
You can always install gimp2 +without_gnome +no_python
It will be somewhat faster to build, but you get no python scripts,
no svg support, no help viewer, no help files, no scanner support, no
print support, no macosx support, and even less.
