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

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

config.log says:

configure:14147: checking for PYCAIRO
configure:14155: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "pycairo >= 1.2.0
        "
Package pycairo was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `pycairo.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

The Portfile adds PKG_CONFIG_PATH='${python.prefix}/lib/pkgconfig' to the configure environment. Since you didn't attach the main.log I cannot check whether that worked for you, but it certainly works fine for me.

Please attach the main.log.

[neverpanic (Clemens Lang)]

There's nothing I can do about this without the main.log, since I can't reproduce.

Ah, I had a local patch to the python-1.0 portgroup trying to solve the problem I mentioned in comment:ticket:34271:12. I've been running with that patch for a long time. I should just commit it.

The reason why py-gobject3 has a problem with the patch is that py-gobject3 puts PKG_CONFIG_PATH into configure.env manually, instead of using the configure.pkg_config_path variable. Looks like a number of ports make this same mistake. However, after I commit my patch to the portgroup, the ports will no longer need to add that path manually since the portgroup will already have done it.

OK, r120178.
