gdk-pixbuf2: gdk-pixbuf-csource fails while building gimp2 on Sierra

[lynsey93]

Attempting to build gimp2 with MacPorts, however it fails with

 Error: org.macports.build for port gimp2 returned: command execution failed

Here is output from the log file where it looks like it goes wrong:

I'm unable to reproduce this problem building the default gimp2 version (X11) on macOS 10.12.3 (Sierra public beta release 4)

The error you are seeing is coming from

/opt/local/bin/gdk-pixbuf-csource

which is provided by port gdk-pixbuf2. This port has been recently updated as has gimp2 (to rebuild with the newer gdk-pixbuf2)

Questions:

• Are you building the default (X11) variant of gimp2 or the gimp2 +quartz variant?
• Which version/variants of gdk-pixbuf2 is currently installed?

  $ port installed gdk-pixbuf2
  The following ports are currently installed:
    gdk-pixbuf2 @2.36.4_0+x11 (active)
  

Without further information, I suggest that you make sure your ports tree is up to date and try again with a clean build

sudo port selfupdate
sudo port clean gdk-pixbuf2 gimp2
sudo port install gimp2
