gtk2 and gtk3 ports and +x11 vs +quartz variant worries

[Ken Cunningham]

Is there a wiki page I missed perhaps for how to sort out the conflicting requirements for +x11 and +quartz in the various gtk port implementations?

I understand the basic reasons for this, but  I quite frequently seem to find myself on the wrong side of the line with this.

Perhaps there is no answer to satisfy all requirements, and I get that. A 'cheat sheet' of what ports go with what variants (+x11 vs +quartz) would be nice, if anyone has that level of experience with it.

Best, Ken


Here are this mornings issues (after 24 hours of compiling following yesterday's port selfupdate). I'm sure I'll eventually figure out how to straighten this out....


port upgrade outdated led to -->
