Summary: It seems that installing an unrelated package helps install
emboss. http://gist.github.com/272851

I tried installing emboss, and it failed. As far as I can tell, I used
the latest version of xcode (3.2.1) and macports (1.8.2), and OS X
(10.6.2), but I wasn't 100% sure whether X11 and X11 SDK installed
correctly.

Then I installed xeyes, to check whether X11 / X11 SDK was installed
correctly, and that went smoothly, and apparently installed a lot of
dependencies on the way.

Then I tried installing emboss again, and this time it worked!

Does this suggest that emboss has missing dependencies (similar to
ticket 22907), or am I doing something wrong? (I've only been using
Macs and MacPorts for just over a week)

Thanks,

Andrew Grimm
