I know about this issue and have worked on it but I am unsure how to solve it. I'll keep looking but if you have any ideas, please let me know.

Replying to macsforever2000@…:

Perhaps KDE3 is required by kst? Found this webpage:

http://kst.kde.org/download.html

which says "Kst currently requires KDE3.4 or newer (but not Qt/KDE4)."

Furthermore, I cannot find any file named "kde-config" on my mac using Spotlight.

Is this still a problem for you with kst 1.8.0?

This port no longer has a maintainer.

To my understanding, kde-config should be in KDE3 (KDE4 uses kde4-config, and configure steps do not mention it explicitely if I remember correctly), which is not provided by Macports anymore.

However, the port seems pretty outdated, as Kst has a version 2.0.8. It is mentioned that it should only require Qt. I'll try to update the port when I have access to my machine.

It took more time than I expected, and quite a rewrite of the port, but I updated it in r133899, so that it should work now, based on Qt4.
