Comment:
Since gcc42 does not work on Snow Leopard anymore, you will need to use
either gcc47 or gcc45. pdftk is written in java and requires a java
compiler, which is only available in the gcc ports (not in Xcode, not in
the clang or llvm-gcc ports).
It's not trivial to add or remove variants from a port based on OS version
or other criteria, especially when those variants reference (conflict
with) one another. The current behavior is pretty good already in that it
does correctly inform you what the problem is.
pdftk will stop offering a gcc42 option; see #34275. gcc42 will be removed
from MacPorts entirely; see #33919.
