Unable to build help2man, typo in dependency

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Good Evening,

When I try to build the help2man package for MacPorts v2.0.1 (it's a dependency for nodejs-devel), I get an error about an unknown dependency: 

[root@dolph:~ ] # port install help2man
--->  Computing dependencies for help2man
Error: Dependency 'p5.12-locale-gettext' not found.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

Investigating further, it seems there is a similarly named package: 

[dolph:~ ] $ port search locale-gettext
p5-locale-gettext @1.50.0 (perl)
    Perl interface to GNU gettext

...so this may just be a typo.

Are there any ways I can fix this on my end, or should I wait for a new release of the help2man package?

Thanks for your time,

-- Doug

Run sudo port selfupdate and try again.

I'm assuming something was updated on the server side, because that seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks!
