 Good Evening,

 When I try to build the help2man package for MacPorts v2.0.1 (it's a
 dependency for nodejs-devel), I get an error about an unknown dependency:

 [root at dolph:~ ] # port install help2man
 --->  Computing dependencies for help2man
 Error: Dependency 'p5.12-locale-gettext' not found.
 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
 To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

 Investigating further, it seems there is a similarly named package:

 [dolph:~ ] $ port search locale-gettext
 p5-locale-gettext @1.50.0 (perl)
     Perl interface to GNU gettext

 ...so this may just be a typo.

 Are there any ways I can fix this on my end, or should I wait for a new
 release of the help2man package?

 Thanks for your time,

 -- Doug
