I see: This file was extended by gtk-doc config.status 1.29, which was generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69. Invocation command line was CONFIG_FILES = CONFIG_HEADERS = CONFIG_LINKS = CONFIG_COMMANDS = $ ./config.status on mbp-17 config.status:1261: creating Makefile config.status:1413: error: could not create Makefile Which is a weird error --- is your disk full or something? anyway, sudo port clean gtk-doc sudo port -v install gtk-doc should work, did for me: $ port -v installed gtk-doc The following ports are currently installed: gtk-doc @1.29_2+python36 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='noarch' date='2019-01-06T17:27:05-0800' Ken > > Uli > > > On 2/1/19 12:04 AM, Ken Cunningham wrote: >> I am sorry to hear that.
