eel fails to upgrade | 2.22.1_0 < 2.24.1_0 | 10.4.11 PPC

[Tobias Weisserth]

Hi everybody,

a lot of Gnome related ports still fail utterly when trying to upgrade.

I am trying to upgrade eel on a PowerBook with the latest MacPorts (details
in the subject line).

When I run 'sudo port -fun upgrade eel' I get this:

--->  Fetching eel
--->  Verifying checksum(s) for eel
--->  Extracting eel
--->  Configuring eel
Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell

) were not met:

Requested 'gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.23.3' but version of gnome-desktop-2.0 is
2.22.1

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables EEL_CFLAGS
and EEL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1

Any ideas?

Apparently dependencies are not properly resolved in the whole Gnome build
chain. How do I fix this locally?
