Seems a package latex2man is missing. And also a dependency from this package.

Main.log from High Sierra 10.13.6

Does it solve the problem if you install texlive-bin-extra? I usually check texlive.tlpdb or grep through the tlpsrc files to see where a particular file or package is contained..

If it helps, maybe we should add it to the build dependencies of poedit.

Replying to mojca:

Yes, this worked now.

Since the documentation is an integral part of the port the dependency is needed.

[dliessi (Davide Liessi)]

I think this ticket can be closed: the build dependency on texlive-bin-extra was added in 6a774a6ae8ac2458f9c6f6bce48aa89aaeaccd88/macports-ports (master):

pstoedit: update to version 3.72

add build dependendency on texlive-bin-extra

[dliessi (Davide Liessi)]

I'm sorry, I see now that this ticket is newer than the change: what happened? Why was texlive-bin-extra not installed as a dependency if it was already declared as such?

builds on high sierra now:
