Well webkit-gtk doesn't work with geoclue-2.0. It requires the old geoclue support, so this won't go in until webkit-gtk is updated for geoclue-2.0. I suggest you revert empathy.

Empathy doesn't need to be reverted -- optional location awareness support is disabled by default in the current version.

Just discovered that gnome-settings-daemon also needs geoclue-2.0 to upgrade to the 3.10.2 level. So this will have to wait until the problem with webkit-gtk is resolved.

Actually, it appears that geoclue-2.0 will install in parallel with the old version without conflict. So perhaps just adding a new geoclue2 Portfile or subport would do the trick. Attached is a rough preliminary Portfile.

That's geoclue2, of course.

optional location awareness support is disabled by default in the current version.

Yet it was on by default in the previous version, and anyone who upgrades from it will be using their old variants by default, which will cause a build failure by default.

I'll commit it, but I'm not going to maintain it since it isn't needed for any of my ports.
