But, as Ken says, we need more information to figure out what your problem
is.  In particular, what variant are you trying to build +quartz or +x11.
The fact that you are having to rebuild multiple times makes me think
that its +quartz.  Is this correct?

In addition, we need a clean copy of your build log to observe the particulars 
of
the failure.  Please do the following:

sudo port clean webkit2
sudo port install webkit2

The command

port logfile

will tell you where to find the logfile we're looking for.  Please
attach it to your reply.

Or better yet open a ticket and attach the log file there.

Thanks for your patience

Do one of these correspond to the problem you're seeing? If not, please file a 
bug report.

Yes, this is what I tried to install and fails, sorry.

You probably want webkit2-gtk.

% port echo 'webkit*'
webkit-gtk
webkit-gtk-2.0
webkit-gtk-devel
webkit-gtk3
webkit-gtk3-2.0
webkit-gtk3-devel
webkit-sharp
webkit2-gtk
webkit2-gtk-devel

That's not really useful, but I assure you that the webkit-gtk-2.0 port
aborts on Sierra with a "not supported" message, and this will not be
"fixed". Perhaps you are not seeing this message because a dependency is
causing the failure.

In any case, try using one of the WebKit2 ports.

Thanks for posting your worries instead of just giving up.

I will leap here to assume you actually do want help to get this to work, and 
you're not just venting frustration.

You have to realize that with the kind of information you've volunteered so 
far, no-one on Earth is likely to be able to help you.

Please consider first of all searching for an existing ticket that explains 
your issue in the Macports tickets (https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Tickets). 
There likely is one.

If there is not a ticket that represents your issue, then open a ticket 
yourself. Be accurate about the name of the port. Upload the build log, 
mentioned in every error report. Let us have a look.

If you were to do those things, there is a very reasonable chance one of the 
dozens of kind-hearted souls who hang out around here will help you solve the 
issue, whatever it might be!

Best,

Ken

I think so. Whats the alternative?

That port is not supported on recent systems, and it errors out with a 

message saying so.

No, it fails with "command execution failed"...

Are you talking about webkit-gtk-2.0? That port is not supported on recent 
systems, and it errors out with a message saying so.

webkit-getk2: Will it ever be fixed?

[Bachsau]

Since my upgrade to macOS sierra I tried compiling and installing 
webkit-gtk2 for weeks, again and again. Even though I got a new version 
every time, it still fails to build.


Will it ever be fixed? I find it so disturbing that I always come across 
broken ports. If a build fails, please don't distribute it via port 
upgrade until fixed. :(
