I installed it because at some point I was testing its use for web-site
and/or iphone apps development

In that case, consider looking into the gdk-pixbuf2 port, since that's a much 
newer version of the same software. We only keep the old gdk-pixbuf port around 
for very old software that's not compatible with the newer version. In fact 
there seem to only be two such ports... (xqf and sylpheed-devel)

Re: xemacs fails to build with new libpng

2012-09-05 Thread Fielding, Eric J (3242)
Jeremy,

Thanks for the suggestion, but this did not work for me yesterday. The
xemacs build still failed (after a lot of time recompiling things). Today,
the new update for xemacs (thanks to Dan Ports!) fixed it and all my ports
now build again. The new system of checking the binaries at the end caught
a partially built binary and fixed that also.

 Now MacPorts won't let me deactivate libpng 1.5 because a number of
ports are depending on it. Is there a way to roll back all of the ports
to the versions that use libpng 1.4 while things are being sorted out?
 
 The xemacs program is something I use all the time.

The likely quick fix for this situation is to rebuild xemacs from source:
sudo port clean xemacs
sudo port -s upgrade --force xemacs

If something more intensive than linking against the new libpng libraries
needs done, then you should see about setting up a local repository
checked out from before libpng's upgrade:
