 > "X11R6 1" is not a typical X11 location. MacPorts and probably lots of
 the software you can install using MacPorts cannot deal with paths with
 spaces in the path name. It's just not usual for unix software to support
 this, so this will probably never change. I don't know why "X11R6 1" is on
 your system but others' guesses in this ticket seem plausible. Probably
 you should remove it.

 a TeX program. It probably used to depend on teTeX but since teTeX is dead
 it was changed to texlive, but in such a way that if you already have
 teTeX it'll use that instead. This is intentional, so that you can select
 the TeX program that you prefer.

 I have the same issue.  Is there any workaround for this?  Can the
 portfile or makefile or cofigure script be hacked to igonore this
 directory and not add it to the library search path?

 Or, as suggested in the nabble post mentioned above, can I manual link?
 How would that be done?  Would I then rerun port install after linking?
