checking for GMIME... configure: error: Package requirements (gmime-2.0 >= 2.1.9)

[krischik@…]

Today I just wanted to do some work with gimp - but is stopped working. So I thought an update might be at hand.

Only - I can't update:

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.16... yes
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.4.0... yes (version 2.20.4)
checking for GMIME... configure: error: Package requirements (gmime-2.0    >= 2.1.9) were not met:

No package 'gmime-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GMIME_CFLAGS
and GMIME_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Of course GMIME is installed:

~/Applications  Darwin  martin@macpro  So Aug 23 19:47:44  standart  130 
>port installed gmime 
The following ports are currently installed:
  gmime @2.4.8_0 (active)
~/Applications  Darwin  martin@macpro  So Aug 23 19:47:48  standart  0

I added this defect to both gimp and gmine - since I had a very similar problem yesterday with pan2/gmime. I guess the gmime update opened a can of worms.

gimp, gimp2 do not depend on gmime nor do they test for it in configure so I suspect that the problem you are seeing is involved with the update of one of gimp's dependencies. Can you look and see what port is being configured when the error occurs? I can't tell from the information that you submitted.

Sorry my fault. It was indeed not a gimp problem.
