 Replying to [comment:18 m74z00219@…]:
 > I tried removing the symlink to wxwin.m4, but install still fails. I
 think my problem extends to the fact that I've been fooling around with
 git (from macports). The log refers to a list of items that were not
 installed by Macports...or at least not registered to have been installed
 by Macports.

 The method of software distribution (i.e. from a git or hg or svn or cvs
 or bzr repository, or from a tarball download) should have no bearing on
 whether a project interferes in some way with MacPorts. You'll have to be
 more specific about the problem you're experiencing, if you still need
 help with it, but it sounds like it's not related to this ticket, and if
 it's something you're doing outside of MacPorts (using "`make`" for
 example) then it sounds like it's not related to MacPorts.
