gnome-control-center @2.24.0.1 - Configure Blocked by Outdated gnome-doc-utils Port

[ctempleton3@…]

I can not configure gnome-control-center due to the dependancy gnome-doc-utils is outdated and blocking the config. Please update gnome-doc-utils and indicate the minimum version requirement in gnome-control center.

configure: error: gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2 not found

$ port installed gnome-doc-utils
The following ports are currently installed:
  gnome-doc-utils @0.14.2_0 (active)
$ port info gnome-doc-utils
gnome-doc-utils @0.14.2 (gnome)

gnome-doc-utils is a collection of documentation utilities for the Gnomeproject. Notably, it contains utilities for building
documentation andall auxiliary files in your source tree, and it contains the DocBookXSLT stylesheets that were once distributed
with Yelp.

The problem is not that gnome-doc-utils is outdated, 0.14.2 is much more recent than 0.3.2. Also, why are you using trace mode? Are you aware that it is not perfect and can cause failures? The preferred flag for producing debug output is simply -d.

[ctempleton3@…]

Yep you are right. I understand there revision scheme now. I mistakenly added a '.' in my mind when I looked at the reversion number (aka, 0.1.4.2 instead of 0.14.2).

Also, I didn't know that a trace could block a build.

Please close this ticket as I have entered Ticket #18503 to replace this ticket due to the revision number not blocking the build.

Thanks,

Charles III
