Unable to load nib file / Problem with CompileXIB

[janosch1 at mailbox.org]

Hi,

I am struggling to create working port file for sparkle(https://github.com/sparkle-project/Sparkle). All targets contained in the Xcode project are building with no errors but when I build & install sparkle via macports and start the „Sparkle Test App“ app bundle I get this: 

2021-01-11 16:22:56.277 Sparkle Test App[66399:870691] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting

I do not get this error if I run the same app bundle built from Xcode. I noticed there is a difference between those app bundles. Whereas the macports bundle looks like this:

Contents
  |__ Resources
		|__<locale>.lproj
				|__InfoPlist.strings


The Xcode app bundle looks like this:

Contents
  |__ Resources
		|__<locale>.lproj
				|__MainMenu.string


I have very limited Xcode experience but for me it looks like that the missing MainMenu.string could be the problem. I also noticed that the CompileXIB command is different between Xcode and macports. See [1] and [2] attached. Is there a way to make MacPorts use a command like [2] instead of [1]?

Regards,
Janosch
