With regard to your recent changes - why did you upgrade two ports to
their unstable versions (atk, gdk-pixbuf2)? Usually it is save to rely on
MacPorts to install the stable release versions and use separate devel
ports if one wants to test a development branch.
Also, why are now three apparently random ports configured with '--enable-
introspection=yes' whereas the rest of the gtk2-related dependencies are
not? On the homepage for [http://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection
GObject Introspection] it explicitly says in the first sentence:
> '''Note: GObject Introspection is still in development''' - the first
stable release is scheduled for release with GTK+ 3.
If you need introspection enabled for building the just released gtk3,
could this be handled in variants, or separate ports, without affecting
gtk2 appplications? AFAIU it will take quite a while before gtk3 can
"replace" gtk2, and some applications maybe never upgrade to gtk3.
