Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:41401 donald_y_smith@…]:

 > 1. one is the libX11 not found, so port couldn't be compiled. I googled
 it and found for gnuplot had the same problem and they fixed it on Nov 2.

 This is curious, since xorg-libX11 is definitely listed as a dependency of
 root.

 > 2. I set my gcc as llvm-gcc42. But the configuration didn't use it. It
 always use the one with Xcode, and the same time the port gfortran will be
 used.

 It is intentional that MacPorts ports use a compiler that MacPorts
 selects, not the compiler you select for your own use on the command line.
