Glom will not build because of missing library

Description

Hi

The glom 1.4.2 needs gnome-python-extras as dependency, but it is not available. 

MacPorts 2.3.1
Entering interactive mode... ("help" for help, "quit" to quit)
[Users/m-rick] > install glom
--->  Computing dependencies for glom
Error: Dependency 'gnome-python-extras' not found.
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port glom failed

Latest versions of Glom are not using gnome-python-extras anymore which is deprecated, but PyGda which isn't available in MacPorts. ​http://www.glom.org/wiki/index.php?title=Download

Latest Glom version is 1.27 ​http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glom/1.27/ and it is GTK3 based.

Glom is much better than FileMaker Pro because it can link to PGSQL, MySQL and SQLite unlike FileMaker, and can access blobs fields like picture unlike FileMaker which ODBC connector is very limited… So Glom is a good alternative to get a nice GUI with for OpenSource databases.
