GTK3 won’t build on M1 MacBook because of Python 2.6 dependency — at Version 2

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

I’m trying to install gerbv.

One of the huge number of dependencies is gtk. Doing a sudo port install gtk3 results in the following error: 

Error: Failed to fetch python26: python26 cannot be built for Apple Silicon

I already have python39 installed. Is there any way to get gtk to use that?

Very little actually depends on python26, and it doesn't seem to be a dependency of gtk3 on x86_64 systems at least. Could you please confirm what specifically is depending on python26, with e.g. port rdeps gtk3 and port echo rdepends:python26?
