putty @0.63 +gui build failure: 'gdk/gdkx.h' file not found

[gthb (Gunnlaugur Thor Briem)]

Build of putty @0.63 +gui fails on missing file gdk/gdkx.h`, whether installing fresh or upgrading, with this salient bit in the log:

Building with -gui works.

The log shows ccache is enabled, but I tried also with it disabled; same result.

This is on Mac OS X 10.10.4, Xcode 6.4 Build version 6E35b.

OK, this is really because I have gtk2 +quartz installed, not the x11 variant, and putty's dependency on gtk2 is really a dependency on gtk2 +x11. Same problem for another MacPorts package at #42787 and same problem for putty in Homebrew at ​https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/issues/40951

I'm guessing there is no way to declare a dependency on a specific variant of a port? Tried depends_lib-append port:gtk2+x11 but it wasn't having it.

Replying to gunnlaugur@…:

The require_active_variants procedure in the active_variants 1.1 portgroup would have to be used to do that.
