fontforge insists on using Apple's X11.app

[Lars Sonchocky-Helldorf]

Hi MacPorters,

after years of absence today I gave macports another try. I installed xorg first and after this fontforge, both without any special options. When I then launched fontforge Apple's X11.app opened. I then disabled this by issuing:

launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/org.x.startx.plist

as described here: http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X11-UsersFAQ


When I now try to launch fontforge I get the following messages in system.log

What I am doing wrong?


Thanks,
