I encountered a problem with the .mpkg file created with the command
{{{
sudo port mpkg gtk2
}}}
When this package is installed on a clean Mac, the application that
uses it can not display image files. This is confirmed because the gtk2
package contains a gtk-demo program in /opt/local/share/gtk-2.0/demo
and when you click on the Images widget example button ïn this program
you see a broken image together with error messages like "failed to load
image".
It happens on all OSX versions 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 and 10.9.
After a long search for the problem I noticed that the folder
/opt/local/share/mime on the clean Mac contained fewer files than on the
machine with Macports on it. After copying all the missing files it
finally worked!
I had already sought the problem in the immodules cache (which is created
with
gtk-query-immodules-2.0) and found no problem with it, but noticed that it
contains MIME names. So apparently gtk2 gives up loading an image if the
MIME name cannot be resolved.
Please fix this. Of course I don't know if it's simply a missing
dependency in
the gtk2 package or a fault in the mpkg/mdmg code.
But gtk2 needs the MIME database included. Thanks,
Manuel Op de Coul

Comment:
Which mime files were missing, and which port provides them?
