[GSOC] Request for feedback for the new web application

[Mojca Miklavec]

Dear MacPorts users and developers,

As most of you probably know already, we have 4 GSOC projects this
year, one of them for a web application.

The application written by Arjun made a decent progress so far and is
available under a temporary URL:
http://ec2-52-34-234-111.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/

We would be extremely happy for any feedback you might have, either
here or under
https://github.com/macports/macports-webapp/issues
so that we can make the application better and more useful while Arjun
is still working on it full time.

You are also invited to opt-in to statistics submission by running
sudo port install mpstats-gsoc

Samples of statistics collected in the last two months can be seen
here, for example:
http://ec2-52-34-234-111.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/statistics/
http://ec2-52-34-234-111.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/port/wget/?tab=stats
Thank you very much to everyone who is participating.

Thank you very much,
Mojca

inkscape-gtk3-devel and D-Bus errors

[Ruben Di Battista]

Hello, 
I’m working on Inkscape-gtk3-devel in order to build it on Mojave (since the 
standard port doesn’t work). So far I managed to make it build correctly and 
the app also starts… But I’m getting some errors related to D-Bus that are a 
bit weird:

```
inkscape

provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

*** BUG ***
In void pixman_region32_init_rect(region_type_t *, int, int, unsigned int, 
unsigned int): Invalid rectangle passed
Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debug
```
Inkscape seems to run despite the errors. The problem is that dbus-daemon is 
running: 

```
ps -A | grep bus
83 ??         0:00.02 /opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
```

I also tried to `port unload/load` dbus, but no change. I also tried manually 
to start the dbus login session:
```
launchctl start org.freedesktop.dbus-session
```

```
ps -A | grep bus
83 ??         0:00.02 /opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --system —nofork
83 ??         0:00.02 /opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
 1159 ??         0:00.01 /opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --nofork --session
```

Any idea?

PS: Shouldn’t the session also be running after the `port load`? Why do I need 
to start it manually?
