Problem installing Firefox-X11 with Gnucash

20 Sep 2007

      I too was having problems trying to install gnucash.  I did the  
following:

1. Edited the portfile and added --enable-system-cairo to the  
configure.args
2. Re-issued: sudo port install firefox-x11. Since the portfile  
changed, it re built the whole app.

To find the portfile, do "port file firefox-x11" at the shell prompt.
The modified portion of the file now looks like:

configure.args	--enable-application=browser \
		--enable-official-branding \
		--disable-static \
		--enable-shared \
		--enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 \
		--enable-xft \
		--disable-freetype2 \
		--enable-xinerama \
		--with-pthreads \
		--enable-gnomevfs \
		--enable-postscript \
		--disable-prebinding \
		--disable-debug \
		--enable-strip \
		--enable-optimize='-O2' \
		--disable-tests \
		--with-default-mozilla-five-home=${prefix}/lib/firefox \
		--with-system-jpeg=${prefix} \
		--with-system-zlib=${prefix} \
		--enable-system-cairo \
		--with-system-png=${prefix}

(Make sure there are no spaces after the '\', and I used tabs, not  
spaces,
to indent the line).

Now I'm on to fixing problems with goffice, -DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED  
and GtkTooltips problems...
