Your first steps should be to discover whether glade-sharp and gconf-sharp are separate from glade and gconf, respectively, and if so, to create ports for each of them. Then you can begin trying to create a port for gnome-subtitles. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
