#12966: BUG: avahi cannot find Python module gtk -----------------------+---------------------- Reporter: vinc17@… | Owner: rhwood@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: -----------------------+---------------------- Comment (by kenneth.f.cunningham@…): Sorry to resurrect old, old bug, but I just ran into this installing avahi @0.6.31_13 on snow leopard with libc++. For those who may search here for information with the same issue, the problem in my case was cairo, which was installed without the +x11 variant. {{{ cairo @1.14.6_0+quartz-x11 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='x86_64' }}} {{{ Python 2.7.12 (default, Jul 5 2016, 21:21:28) [GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Clang 3.7.1 (tags/RELEASE_371/final)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

upgrading cairo to include the x11 variant {{{ cairo @1.14.6_0+quartz+x11 platform='darwin 10' archs='x86_64' }}} solved the issue, python 2.7 then found the py-gtk module successfully, and the installation of avahi went along smoothly. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/12966#comment:19> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
