Kurt,
I will not be able to help. I do have this additional information and questions though.
I ran the install command and it fails for me at xmlto - I have this problem from an earlier install. I wonder if my issue is because I am on intel.
G5Q:khillig > sudo port install -f evince
---> Fetching evince
---> Verifying checksum(s) for evince
---> Extracting evince
---> Configuring evince
---> Building evince with target all
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd
"/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_gnome_evince/work/evince-2.21.1"
&& make all " returned error 2
My questions are:
what version of xmlto do you have installed?
what version of xcode are you using? I have found that older versions (<2.4) have issues with compiling some ports.
Good luck.
Michael
