Comment(by imkira@…):

 Sorry guys, I would also prefer to have a 64bit build :)
 Since I was a bit in a hurry when I wanted to install gimp, I just made a
 temporary workaround in order to install the app and make some quick
 artwork.

 nikeios.the.morgoth, I don't know much about macport's internals, but it
 is possible that macports doesn't detect the change to the Portfile after
 the compilation failed. Try to do the following (I hope it works):

 {{{
 sudo port clean gimp-app
 sudo port patch gimp-app
 sudo echo "xcode.build.settings ARCHS=i386" >> "$(port dir gimp-
 app)/PortFile"
 sudo port install gimp-app
 }}}

 fredrik.karlsson84, you mean the error log during the compilation?
 Like I said, I haven't investigated too much but I would say that its some
 lack of support for 64bit Carbon, because of loads of "implicit
 declaration of function" lines pointing to what seem to be Carbon
 functions (I am not a Carbon coder too anyway, so I may be wrong here
 :)... The problem itself is only limited to the files included in gimp-app
 code. I mean, no dependencies are causing the problem.
