gtkmm requires p5-xml-parser

[barabas@…]

gtkmm install on clean machine (10.7.5) fails with:

--->  Building gtkmm
Error: org.macports.build for port gtkmm returned: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port gtkmm for details:
    /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_x11_gtkmm/gtkmm/main.log

After port install p5-xml-parser, Install succeeds.

Suggest adding p5-xml-parser as a dependency

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

In the future, please use WikiFormatting, fill in the Port field and Cc the port maintainer(s).

If so, then p5.12-xml-parser - the Macports perl default version - should be added as a dependency.

A dependency on p5-xml-parser was added in r105698. This was incorrect; you should not declare a dependency on a stub port or one which has been replaced by another port. It needed to have been a dependency on p5.12-xml-parser, and gtkmm needs to be instructed to specifically use perl5.12 instead of perl.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Why specifically perl5.12? Any version of perl should work.

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

Per comment:3, dependencies and configuration made perl5.12 specific in commit r106694.
