Confirmed, and it's gettext 0.18 that brought this about. If you need gtk1 immediately, downgrade gettext to 0.17, clean gtk1 and it should build. gtk 2.20.x doesn't seem to be affected. I'm not sure what we should do about this since the developers of gtk probably don't care to go back and fix anything in gtk 1.x anymore.

Replying to ryandesign@…: Could someone explain the downgrade process here?

I ran into this at 9:40 today. Traced the issue to gtk1. found that ticket, then this one.

Read the downgrade instructions, but there is NO gettext 0.17(anything) in the ports tree, browsing to find the version/name.

It's 2pm now, and I've just given up on my backup plan, which was to try gtk2 and somehow force PuTTY's port to not check for gtk1, but there appears to be no option to the port command to allow this.

I would really be appreciative if someone can just paste in the working line which has gotta be something like "svn co -rr MAGICNUMBER ​http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/something-i-cant-find/gettext-0.17-some-idiot-needed-me-to-spell-this-out-for-them\!"

Maybe just link to a last-known-stable 0.17 or something.

i would love you (but not in /that/ way) for it.

Thanks!

You may wish to read #24934. Its comment 11 contains the commands you seek, however you will likely run into several subsequent issues; read the rest of the ticket (yes, it's long) for a taste of what those might be and how you might resolve them.

Very nice- here's what I did to make it work:

Yeah, that's where it got fun. Ended up 'uninstalling' each of these by hand, including dependencies, some 4-levels deep. (remember when I said I installed gtk2 to see if that would work? yeah. that was a bad idea. :)

Anyway, continuing to the payoff:

tty7, thanks for figuring this out. Your trick allowed me to install the old gettext.

In the future, it would be nice if Macports installed gettext 0.17 when installing gtk1.

$ svn co -r 30842 http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/devel/gettext
...downloading gettext 0.17...
$ cd gettext
$ sudo port -f deactivate gettext
...deactivating gettext 0.18...
$ sudo port install
...installing gettext 0.17...
$ sudo port install gtk1
...installing gtk1...

Replying to gunnmjk@…:

That would involve creating a new gettext017 port, which we can do, but which I would like to avoid. I would prefer if someone would figure out how to make gtk1 compile against gettext 0.18.x.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Has duplicate #25499.

[signal@…]

Ultimately getting 0.18.x working is the right direction. However with the absence of an immediate fix we shouldn't keep gtk1 (and other packages?) broken until one comes out. Would rather go with gettext 0.17 as the default until this can be looked at further.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Worked around the problem for now by disabling natural language support in gtk1 entirely; see r70370. If someone else can figure out how to reenable it later please do so.
