-----------------------+---------------------
 In order to perform a `clean build` of coming GCC 16 on `PPC Leopard, Mac
 OS X 10.5.8` I had de-activated almost all ports, Now I am re-activating
 them and port creates problems, trying to `upgrade` software instead of
 `activating` it. With `poppler` this happened:

 {{{
 -- Found Freetype: /opt/local/lib/libfreetype.dylib (found suitable
 version "2.14.3", minimum required is "2.11")
 -- Found Fontconfig: /opt/local/lib/libfontconfig.dylib (found suitable
 version "2.18.1", minimum required is "2.13")
 -- Checking for module 'nss>=3.68'
 --   No package 'nss' found
 -- Could NOT find NSS3 (missing: NSS3_LIBRARIES NSS3_CFLAGS) (Required is
 at least version "3.68")
 CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:166 (MESSAGE):
   Could not find the 3.68 version of NSS3.  If you're not interested in
 the
   features it provides set the cmake ENABLE_NSS3 option to OFF
 Call Stack (most recent call first):
   CMakeLists.txt:171 (find_soft_mandatory_package)
 }}}

 So port disclosed a missing dependency.
