#22197: xcb fails to install on Snow Leopard MacPort 1.8.1 ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: felix@… | Owner: qbarnes@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.1 Keywords: | Port: xcb ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Comment(by qbarnes@…): I'm a "newbie" too for the most part. I just wait until one of the maintainers sees the patch, reviews it, tests it, and checks it in. In the mean time, you can download the patch and apply it yourself to get going. There is no reason for glade3 to have any dependency on the "xcb" package. My guess is that the dependency on "xcb" in the gnome "startup- notification" is not necessary thinking it had something to do with xorg- xcb-* packages. If this dependency is in any way necessary, I'd be completely shocked. The xorg-xcb-* packages have to do with "X protocol C-language Binding" where the xcb package itself has to do with "X Cut Buffers". Maybe the other way to get going is to remove the dependency on xcb from the gnome "startup-notification" package. You can let us know what happens taking that route. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/22197#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
