Comment (by lukaso):
> make an overlay repo rolling poppler back until this gets sorted out?
Yes. Unfortunately, because GIMP has *so many* dependencies, if I want to
keep the build running, I'm constantly doing overlays. That ends up being
most of the maintenance work.
Philosophically, I'm also of the opinion (though I'm not a macports
maintainer) that broken code shouldn't be left on the master branch. So
I'm not sure why that's considered the best solution. Also, isn't that
what the `-devel` ports are for?
But I understand how hard it is to maintain all this stuff, so I get it.
Not trying to dunk on anyone.
