Thanks, both of you. I found the answer in http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18958 with the solution: "Pango 1.22.4 with the +no_x11 variant does not install. It lacks the gtk-doc port. Installing that port solves the problem" and it seems to have gotten me back on track with loading the proper MacPorts (although it's still running so I won't know for sure for a while). > ------------------------------ > From: gimp.list.markie1@xxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: Errors on Mac setup attempt for GIMP > development > To: gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > try the suggestions at > http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18200 > plus links? > > > M Gagnon - auria.mg@xxxxxxxxx wrote: >> Hi, >> >> macports is known to fail frequently.
