build of gnumeric @1.10.12 +no_x11 fails on missing libgtk

[gosta.ask@…]

The build script of gnumeric seems to require an X11-specific library although a no_x11 build was requested

:info:build /opt/local/bin/grep: /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.la: No such file or directory
:info:build /opt/local/bin/gsed: can't read /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.la: No such file or directory

I get the same error on building lbgnomeui.

System info:

• XCode:
• XQuartz 2.3.6 (xorg-server 1.4.2-apple56)

MacPorts base version 2.0.1 downloaded.
--->  MacPorts base is already the latest version

Sounds like something in your ports tree still thinks it's supposed to be using gtk x11 instead of gtk quartz.

The decision about whether to use x11 or quartz really must be made before you install any ports, because knowledge of whether x11 or quartz is used can get baked into your other ports, even if they do not advertise any x11 or quartz variants.

Try to search for "libgtk-x11-2.0.la" in all your installed ports; searching the lib directory might be enough:

grep libgtk-x11-2.0.la -r /opt/local/lib

For each file identified, use "port provides" to see what port it comes from, then try rebuilding that port, being sure to select any quartz and/or no_x11 variants it may have.

Thanks for info & help! I decided to not try the quartz path anymore. Deactivated the ports I had changed to be quartz-based, cleaned gnumeric and rebuilt it using +python26. Works now.
