dependencies and redoing MacPorts from scratch

[Paul Beard]

somehow the issues surrounding gettext and rebuilding all its  
dependents were unrecoverable for me. CPU time is cheaper that mine,  
so I wiped out /opt and am starting over.

I figured a good way to start is to build a port that requires a lot  
of infrastructure to be built, and get it all over with. I picked  
inkscape. it chugged long nicely until here:

checking icon-naming-utils >= 0.8.1... no
configure: error: icon-naming-utils >= 0.8.1 is required to build
                  and install gnome-icon-theme

installed icon-naming-utils and then started again (the interactive  
mode is pretty useful: hats off to whosever idea that was). looks  
like gnome-icon-theme needs fixing.

inkscape did eventually finish, so I guess everything is OK now.
