this post corresponds to a ticket opened by me (#12316). I tried to install xpdf on my new MacBook but it fails because the dependency t1lib wasn't installed because it couldn't be found. I tried to find it on the web but it seems that the version specified in the portfile is outdated and I could not find it either.

I had never problems like these installing xpdf on my PowerMac G5 before. It seems that there is no active maintainer of t1lib and xpdf at the moment and I don't know how to fix the portfile. Would this be hard to learn? Can anyone tell me how to tell port where to find the recent version of t1lib?

Martin, I just updated t1lib to 5.1.1. After a few hours do a selfupdate and try again. The MacPorts guide is still under construction, but even unfinished it may help to explain a little about making and modifing portfiles. http://geeklair.net/new_macports_guide/ Mark
