Fair enough. Google searching didn't show anything, but next time I'll
search the macports bugs and the mailing list. Is the mailing list
searchable somewhere, or do I need to look through the archives?
I have been using gentoo for a long time, and I am stilling getting used
to macports. In gentoo, if something like this popped up, the "port"
would be removed in favor of an earlier version that worked; that is
until the port was fixed. Is there an earlier version readily
available? I'm guessing not by the thread referred to above. In that
case, what is a typical time frame for a bug like this to be fixed?
Thanks,
Jonathan
P.S. I expect I'll be helping out with ports development before too
long, and so my questions should not be construed as complaints. Just
trying to learn!
