Comment (by gwhitney@…):

 Replying to [comment:25 devans@…]:

 > On the other hand, if you can build either with X11 support or Quartz
 support then declaring both +x11 and +quartz is OK but you must declare
 them as conflicting because you can't do both at the same time.  Here -x11
 is sensible because you CAN build without X11 support and the same for
 -quartz.

 Based on this it seems to me, the current implementation of a single
 toggle +/-x11 captures exactly what is going on: evolution requires gdk
 (indirectly via evolution-data-server) whether it is +x11 or -x11, but
 evolution -x11 will compile on top of _any_ macports installation of gdk,
 whereas evolution +x11 will only compile on top of gdk with the X11
 backend and adds gnome desktop integration via the gnome-desktop port.

 Isn't that just the right semantics for a single defined variant called
 "x11"?

 Anyhow no rush, looking forward to hearing how it's working for you and if
 the X11-independent gcr looks reasonable to you.  If so, I'd be happy
 either to submit an upstream patch for that or to have you do so, since I
 know that issue has been open for a long time in the gcr issue tracker.
