This was [http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports- users/2008-June/010722.html reported on macports-users] by Eugene Vilensky. This is what happens if you don't have pkgconfig installed: {{{ $ sudo port install xeyes ---> Fetching xeyes ---> Attempting to fetch xeyes-1.0.1.tar.bz2 from http://www.x.org/pub/individual/app/ ---> Verifying checksum(s) for xeyes ---> Extracting xeyes ---> Configuring xeyes Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_rschmidt_macports_dports_x11_xeyes/work/xeyes-1.0.1" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --mandir=/opt/local/share/man " returned error 1 Command output: checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 accepts -g... yes checking for /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking for style of include used by make...

Make sure it is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full path to pkg-config. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XEYES_CFLAGS and XEYES_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. To get pkg-config, see <http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig>. See `config.log' for more details.
