Dear MacPorts-users,
I am running 10.5.1 on a PowerBook G4 1.67GHz machine. I tried
installing emacs, but end up with an error.
Strange thing is the only mention of such a problem is with the
emacs-devel package - hopefully I am just missing something simple.
Thanks,
Bertrand
$ sudo port clean emacs

$ sudo port install emacs +x11

That might be the same problem I had building emacs +gtk on 10.5 ppc.
I found this patch that seems to solve the problem if I build from
source outside of ports:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.bugs/16867
I submitted a bug in trac, but I guess it hasn't been acted on yet.
You could possibly download the source and build it and install
somewhere like /opt/emacs until the port is fixed.
