Confirmed. Rather than try and fix the variant logic, I'm going to try and rewrite the port to remove the +finch and +finch_only variants entirely and add a finch subport instead. This should make things easier to understand and hopefully will produce the desired result -- a finch binary that will install in parallel with pidgin and libpurple if requested. Thanks for the ticket.

Is that something trivial, or should I figure out how to build an old version until you have time for the fix?

Not entirely trivial but I should have a fix ready and tested by the end of the week.

Resolution: fixed
Status: assignedclosed
Version: 2.3.3

Fixed committed in r139801. finch is now a subport of pidgin. Ticket reporter says its working for him (via email when trac was down).
