Have you tried the port "gtkmm" which looks like it installs a newer version of this software?

comment:2 Changed 17 years ago by toralf@…

The newer software version as included in the "gtkmm" port has an incompatible API, though, so if "gtkmm20" is really what he needs, it won't help him much. This is why gtkmm20 is a separate port...

Also, the problem appears to be that the Gtk+ API has changed at some point. It's not supposed to, but I guess the functions in question were considered to be "private" and therefore not subject to the strict rules otherwise imposed on updates to the Gtk sources (generally, no-one is allowed to change function interfaces.)

I actually have a patch that fixes this problem, but the compilation still fails because of a similar problem with another class - so more work is needed...
