'''MacOS 10.9.2 Xcode 5.1.1 Digikam''' : Digital photo management program to import, organize, enhance, search and export your digital images. I try to install digikam by :

''sudo port install -v digikam +debug''

First I receive that : ---> Computing dependencies for digikam

But very quickly I receive these informations :

Error: active_variants: Error: invalid port depspec 'path:lib/pkgconfig/cairo.pc:cairo' Error: expecting either: port or (bin:lib:path):foo:port

What's mean ? What can I do ?

Thank a lot for any help.

Salutations

What can I do ? Thank a lot for any help. Salutations -- Comment: That's strange. The depspec "`path:lib/pkgconfig/cairo.pc:cairo`" ''is'' of the form "`(bin:lib:path):foo:port`" so I don't know what it's complaining about. I'm also not certain which port (digikam, or one of its miriad dependencies) is issuing this complaint. The formulation "`require_active_variants path:lib/pkgconfig/cairo.pc:cairo`" is used in many ports and hasn't been a problem before. Can you show the list of ports that are installed, by running "`port -v installed`"? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43449#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

What happens if you try to install pango explicitly? {{{ sudo port install pango }}} If that works, try again to install digikam. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43449#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
