libgtkhtml3 @3.30.3 - build failure

[bugs1309@…]

I wanted to upgrade my ports installation with the following command: {{sudo port -n upgrade --enforce-variants outdated}}.

It fails during the build of libgtkhtml3 with the following output:

--->  Building libgtkhtml3
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed
Log for libgtkhtml3 is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_gnome_libgtkhtml3/main.log
Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1
To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

The logfile of the build step is attached.

Why are you using -n and --enforce-variants? The former prevents dependencies from being upgraded before their dependents, which can definitely cause problems. The latter isn't useful unless you specify at least one variant that you want to add or remove.

Replying to jmr@…:

I assumed that port upgrade -n outdated will upgrade all packages that are changed, so I should have no problems with outdated dependencies. Are you suggesting that -n screws up the order of the build process? Anyway, this was not the cause of the problem.
