Macports Gnome does not install

Hi Everybody, I have been trying to get the gnome port to install for the last week to no avail! Has anybody gotten it to install? I have a Powerbook and little disk realestate, so I would hate to use fink. Can anyone give me pointers who to contact about it. Do I have to go over to the gnome lists? I have posted here a few times and have not gotten an answer, so that is why I any not giving any specifics. Thanx in advance Keith.
