That "+quartz" actually came as a surprise. I tried
sudo port -f install gimp2 +no_x11
You probably don't want to be in the habit of using "-f".
Probably not, but until +universal on install gets here, ... :-)
(Yea, I've picked up a bad habit.)
And it got as far as
Applying patches to gtk2
---> Configuring gtk2
Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: cairo must be built
with the +quartz variant enabled.
Kleiman-ibook:~ michael$ port installed cairo
The following ports are currently installed:
cairo @1.8.10_0+macosx+no_x11 (active)
So why does gimp2, +no_x11, not force the +quartz flag to its
dependencies? Are end users supposed to track what dependencies
require what additional dependencies?
If cairo was not already installed, I believe it should have been
installed with the +quartz variant, because you were installing gtk2
with the +quartz variant. But if you already had cairo installed
without the +quartz variant, the only thing the gtk2 port can do is
detect this and tell you to fix it. A port cannot cause a dependency
to be installed with a particular variant. That's ticket #126.
Though dependencies that haven't yet been built will inherit the
variants requested on the command line.
In the past, trying to install stuff with +universal without the -f
would fail if a dependent did not have +universal; adding -f made it
work and forced a redo of whatever did not have matching variants.
Here, my thoughts were the same -- by passing -f to port install, I
wanted any existing dependencies to be changed to match.
So why does it work with +universal and not with +no_x11?
(This was the only place I had to go and add +quartz. Everything else
compiled just fine.)
