 In fact, gtk-mac-integration.tar.bz2 contains 2 "modules", one is the old
 (using Carbon) ige-mac-integration renamed to gtk-mac-integration (because
 ige had some meaning related to the company writing it in the first place,
 if I remember correctly), the other module is the (not so) new
 GTKOSXApplication. The old library is deprecated in favor of the new one.
 Is that more clear ?

 [http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/devel/gtk-osx-
 application/files/patch-src-gtkosxapplication_quartz-c.diff patch] is
 superceded by `gtk-mac-integration`.

 This is why I marked it as temporary fix for version 0.9.6 in the
 Portfile.

 > I appreciate your input into this matter.  I'm just a GTK newbie trying
 to make changes that'll eventually culminate in a patch to an otherwise
 broken `inkscape +quartz`.  Still, I think it would be nice if we could
 consolidate `gtk-osx-application` and `gtk-mac-integration`.  I suspect
 that if you plugged in `gtk-mac-integration` as a dependency to your
 `gpodder` dependent, it would work.

 Sure, it would work but why introduce a new port for exactly the same
 package (repeating #25025, without the rationale of an updated API, or is
 there : in the mean time, ige-mac-integration has been updated to 0.9.8 -
 see #29656 and they mention a switch to PyGI ; is it a gtk3 thing or still
 compatible with gtk2 ?). I'd rather see gtk-osx-application's version
 upgraded to 1.0.1.

 And I would appreciate seeing a not broken inkscape +quartz by the way :-)
