MacPorts is designed to use its own software, not any other software
you may have installed elsewhere. See the FAQ:

bin style dependencies are discouraged because of problems like this.
The upgrade code (unless you pass it -n, which is what you want to be
doing to fix this particular issue for yourself) needs to upgrade

As for the policy of "including everything in macports", I don't buy

bin style dependencies
use, especially for some users who do not want to understand
portfiles.
Indeed, that's why (as I've said a few times now), the bin/lib style
dependencies are discouraged in favor of port: style dependencies.
So... in the long run, none of the macport packages should depend on
any external pr

They aren't because they do different things.
A user is simply confused if they are inconsistent. For instance, when
the guy invokes "install" for gnuplot (and he has MacTex installed),
he is relaxed to find that no extra tex system is i
ake things clear. And a FAQ entry telling average
users that "be prepared to install everything from macports; if
something happens not to be installed, it's just you are lucky" would
be nice.

I mean, is there any concrete example that a portfile cannot use port
style and HAS to use bin/lib style?

bin/lib styles should
be installed anyway.
I guess I'll live with the inconsistence of "install" and "upgrade",
until some day the community cannot tolerate the lack of support for
external dependencies. Then let's sit down and find a solution.

Last time I checked, this was fixed in gv-3.5.8_3. Maybe you need to
update your portfiles by invoking "sudo port sync" first.

How about your xaw3d version?
And in case there is a previous version of gv on your harddisk, maybe
it's worth doing a "sudo port clean gv" first.

Hi,
I just found that the gimp in macports has been upgraded to 2.3.18,
and 2.2.17 is completely removed. I'm just wondering, since 2.2.17 is
the latest stable version, maybe it should be included in macports
until 2.4 is out? We can name the port gimp2.2.

Hi,
I just found that dbus depends on docbook-xml-4.1.2. Since
docbook-xml-4.2 is also in the port system, is it OK to update the
dependency to be on docbook-xml-4.2? I prefer to installing only one
copy of docbook-xml...
Best

Xin Liu
A further look shows that there are many versions of docbook-xml in
macports... So I guess there must be a reason for a particular port to
depend on a particular version of docbook-xml?

t; command did not complain about not finding a delegate.
However, from delegate.xml I find that I don't really need ImageMagick
to convert pdf to eps. I just copy the gs command in the delegate
entry to a shell script, and it works. Thanks for the hint!
