Help! Any insight on my four problems with completing the installation of gnome? I'm getting many compilation errors -- conflicting and missing declarations -- not just dependency issues. 1. gedit: I get down to compiling gedit-languages-manager.o and the following is reported: gedit-languages-manager.c:115: error: conflicting types for 'gdk_color_to_string' /opt/local/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkcolor.h:137: error: previous declaration of 'gdk_color_to_string' was here make[4]: *** [gedit-languages-manager.lo] Error 1 I believe that conflict with gdkcolor.h is the result of my having installed gnucash first and then going on to gnome. I tried upgrading gtk2, but port didn't seem to think it was necessary. 2. gnome-applets -- an undeclared variable on 'make all' -- what's missing?

This one may be covered by ticket #10880 gnome-desktop-suite: gedit fails to compile (see below), and I get this: Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gedit gnome-applets seahorse Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. I looked for the package ports file, thinking I could try to build without those, but didn't find it. Maybe all my problems are the result of installing gnucash first?
