(1) There is no port “wxWidgets”, only:
wxWidgets-3.0
wxWidgets-common
wxWidgets_select
Which one(s) do I need to build from source?
(2) And what about gnuplot, which will break if I uninstall wxWidgets-3.0?
(3) Is the build-from-source command “port -s [portname]?
I’m not finding this documented at https://guide.macports.org
