streamripper install failed

[Joerg van den Hoff]

hi there,
 
I ran into the following problem. `port install streamripper' failed with:

=========CUT============
 
indeed, I had only glib 2.14 installed, but
it seems that the missing newer version should be automatically installed or
this is a misconeption?
furthermore, I don't understand the initial 'configure failure' error...
this happened with
 
macos 10.4.11 (PB G4)
port 1.700
 
note: after I installed glib 2.20 manually, streamripper installed apparently fine.
 
best regards
