gtk-osx-application-gtk2 problem

[Dominik Reichardt]

Hi all,

when I upgraded my ports yesterday, I ran into this and am fearing that when I go the force way it will lead to the dark side, e.g. suffering on my part… :)

Activating gtk-osx-application-gtk2 @2.0.8_0
Error: org.macports.activate for port gtk-osx-application-gtk2 returned: Image error: /opt/local/lib/libgtkmacintegration-gtk2.2.dylib is being used by the active gtk-osx-application port.  Please deactivate this port first, or use 'port -f activate gtk-osx-application-gtk2' to force the activation.
Please see the log file for port gtk-osx-application-gtk2 for details:

So, should I rather force the activation and see what will happen?

Thanks and take care
