What do you mean by this? In what way is it "insistent"? Does installing libgda with a variant, then installing gtk-sharp cause it to try and re-install libgda? Or does the gtk-sharp compilation simply fail? Or does something else happen?

On another note: gtk-sharp seems to be insistent on a libgda with the

sqlite on this box. I most especially do not want db4 installed

unless and until I research thoroughly what it takes to minimize its

corruption potential on MacOS. (No slur on SleepyCat, but bdb places

unusual strains on kernels, filesystems, compilers, and core

libraries.) Is there a syntax for "any libgda variant will do" that I

can use in the gtk-sharp portfile? (I'm hoping to get F-Spot

running.)
