libgnomeui: fails to compile with "/opt/local/bin/gsed: can't read /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.la: No such file or directory"

[Damien@…]

I cannot libgnomeui, because of some problem with GTK.

$ port installed gtk2
The following ports are currently installed:
  gtk2 @2.14.7_2+no_x11+quartz (active)

$ port info libgnomeui
libgnomeui @2.24.1 (gnome)
Variants:    (+)no_x11, universal
…

$ port -d install libgnomeui +no_x11
…
make[5]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'.

Sounds like libgnomeui may assume GTK+ is always an X11-based version; this may best be reported in ​GNOME's bug system (I found ​GNOME bug 535958 but that isn't quite the same issue).

[Damien@…]

Is there a way to patch the problem locally, meanwhile?
