port gets different version than what package expects

[alrescha@…]

I've seen this happen a few times now. I go to install package A, and it has a dependency on package B v 1.0.0. Port goes out and gets package B, but it's now v 1.0.1. The install fails with a message like this:

---> Fetching gtk2 ---> Attempting to fetch gtk+-2.4.4.tar.bz2 from ​ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.gnome.org/pub/ GNOME/sources/gtk+/2.4 ---> Verifying checksum(s) for gtk2 ---> Extracting gtk2 ---> Configuring gtk2 ---> Building gtk2 with target all ---> Staging gtk2 into destroot ---> Installing gtk2 2.4.4_0 ---> Activating gtk2 2.4.4_0 Error: Target com.apple.activate returned: Registry error: gtk2 2.4.0_0 not registered as installed.

In this case, package A was 'etherape'. Here's another instance with ethereal:

---> Fetching libpcap ---> Attempting to fetch libpcap-0.8.3.tar.gz from ​http://www.tcpdump.org/release/ ---> Verifying checksum(s) for libpcap ---> Extracting libpcap ---> Applying patches to libpcap ---> Configuring libpcap ---> Building libpcap with target all ---> Staging libpcap into destroot ---> Installing libpcap 0.8.3_3 ---> Activating libpcap 0.8.3_3 Error: Target com.apple.activate returned: Registry error: libpcap 0.8.3_0 not registered as installed. Error: The following dependencies failed to build: libpcap openssl zlib

Apologies if this is a known bug, I searched on 'dependency', 'dependencies', and 'registery error'.

A.

Since this is an old bug and many changes have been made to DP since, is this still an issue?

Resolving, lack of response.
