webkit-gtk failed to configure libXt not found

[guy.linton@…]

Configure failed. Is there a dependency missing from webkit-gtk?

What should I install to get it to work?

Debug log of webkit-gtk install failure

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Please remember to cc the maintainers. The xorg-libXt port is in webkit-gtk's dependency tree via libsoup and libproxy.

[guy.linton@…]

(1) Is it OK to install xorg-libXt port when I am using the Apple X11 (Mac OS X 10.4.11)?

(2) Should I do "port install libsoup" manually to get the xorg-libXt port installed?

(3) If xorg-libXt is in the dependency tree, why didn't port install it before trying to build webkit-gtk? It doesn't seem to have rebuilt libsoup, which was present but out of date: libsoup 2.2.100_0 < 2.28.2_0

(Hence it has not built libproxy)

Please close this. I was trying to update a rather old /opt tree. I have since built from a fresh installation of MacPorts, and do not get this error. I do however still get ​http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23464.

Hello, I was building liferea 1.6.4 today (10/10/10) and failed. The log say xorg-libXt was missing to configure webgit-gtk. I built first xorg-libXt, then liferea came to life. Please add the dependency. Thanks Thomas
