Comment (by ryandesign):
If you mean that there is no icon for glabels in the
/Applications/MacPorts folder or in Launchpad, that's normal for X
programs. You launch them from a terminal. X programs are not macOS
applications and do not respond as macOS applications do so they don't
belong in the Applications folder. X programs do not provide an indication
that they are running, beyond the window(s) that they open.
It is also normal for X to take a moment to start. You can launch
/Applications/MacPorts/X11.app manually at any time before launching an X
program if you want to endure that delay at a different time. You could
even put X11.app in your login items to have it launch when you log in, if
you use X programs frequently.
We intentionally do not add a dependency on xorg-server because you might
want to use a different X server. For example, although we think you'll
prefer xorg-server, you may already have installed the standalone XQuartz
distribution and want to use that instead. Or you may want to use an X
server located on a different computer.
