Please use WikiFormatting and remember to cc/assign to the maintainer, if any.

Your logfile shows your build of evince was not a clean attempt:

35	:debug:main Skipping completed org.macports.archivefetch (evince)
36	:debug:main Skipping completed org.macports.fetch (evince)
37	:debug:main Skipping completed org.macports.checksum (evince)
38	:debug:main Skipping completed org.macports.extract (evince)
39	:debug:main Skipping completed org.macports.patch (evince)
40	:debug:main Skipping completed org.macports.configure (evince)

Please run

sudo port clean evince

and try again. Attach the new main.log, if it fails again.

It seems there's a problem with python, because the logfile says

:info:build /bin/sh: /opt/local/bin/xml2po: /opt/local/bin/python2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Cleaning and re-running configure should pick up a version of python that works. If it doesn't a dependency on python27 should probably be added to the evince port.

[neverpanic (Clemens Lang)]

Actually, /opt/local/bin/xml2po from the gnome-doc-utils port specifies an interpreter of /opt/local/bin/python2.7 that's not where it should be.

The evince port has a dependency on gnome-doc-utils, which has a library dependency on python2.7, which should provide /opt/local/bin/python2.7. Do you have python27 installed? What do

port -v installed python27
# and
port contents python27 | grep 'python2.7$'

print?

Is this still a problem? If so please answer the questions above.

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

I think this is probably irrelevant since the current version of evince is now 3.10.3. Please update your ports tree if you haven't already and if you have any problems with the current version, submit a new ticket with the appropriate details.

Since the new port works well for me, I am closing this ticket with that status.
