Thanks Josh. port reclaim did the trick. I'm still preparing a ticket for gtk3 build fail on Mojave, but thought I should double check here to make sure this is a gtk3 ticket and not a NetSurf ticket.
----- NetSurf build appears to have been successful on OS X 10.8.5 w/ Xcode 5.1.1 on Macmini5,2. But when I try to invoke netsurf-gtk3, I get an error: netsurf-gtk3:59718): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:26:10.346: cannot open display: NetSurf documentation is unrevealing. Expects there to be an application to double-click, and I also expected there to be app bundle in /Applications/MacPorts/. gtk3 documentation may as well be in Sanskrit for all the good it's doing me. I don't want to build an interface, I just want to run a thing. > On Dec 15, 2022, at 09:27, Joshua Root <[email protected]> wrote: > > >> >> Does MacPorts have a way to uninstall the dependencies it installed in >> attempting to build NetSurf (or any complex port that fails to build) >> without uninstalling the dependencies that were already installed? >> >> Will "port reclaim" catch these? > > Yes, port reclaim will clean up such ports for you.
