[andrew.long@…]

Doing 'port upgrade outdated' fails when it gets to building gstreamer1. Compiling gst-ptp-helper.c reports 2 comments and 8 errors on included file if.h relating to 'struct sockaddr' or 'struct sockaddr_storage'.

Indeed, but a confirmation of whether this fixes your issue would be appreciated. I don't currently have a 10.7 test platform.

Port gstreamer1 now builds OK.

Thank you, appreciated.
