pulseaudio needs variants for minimal or no X11

[gaming-hacker (G Alexander)]

Building on travis,

env

• osx10.12
• xcode9.2
• clang
• macports 2.42
• from the recent tarballs.

if you specify variants -x11 or +minimal, port will not build

Error: Failed to archivefetch gtk3: gdk-pixbuf2 must be installed without +x11.

so add variant

port: gdk-pixbuf2 -x11

Error: Failed to configure gtk3: Either +x11 or +quartz is required

so add variant

port:gtk3 +quartz

Error: Failed to archivefetch pulseaudio: libsndfile must be installed with +no_external_libs

so add variant

port:libsndfile +no_external_libs

Configuring gtk3
Error: Failed to configure gtk3, consult /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_ma

Finally the builds absolutely fails with

Replying to gaming-hacker:

Building on travis,

Are you referring to the MacPorts Travis CI integration on pull requests? Are you saying this problem occurs only there, and not when building locally on your own computer?

Can you attach this file?

Can you provide a log?

These are notes, not errors.

Closing, since the gtk3 dependency has been removed.
