Description Shao Zhang 2003-04-04 06:50:06 UTC 
	When trying to install any of the gnome2 ports, it fails in the
configure script. The script complains that gnome-config is not found.

Fix: 

I searched in the newsgroup and somebody suggested to reinstall pkgconfig,
Xft and fontconfig may get rid of this problem. But it did not work, even tried
to reinstall the entire x11 port.
How-To-Repeat: 	bash-2.05b# portupgrade libgnomeui
--->  Upgrading 'libgnomeui-2.0.6_1' to 'libgnomeui-2.2.0.1'
(x11-toolkits/libgnomeui)
...
checking for libgnome-2.0 >= 2.0.0 libgnomecanvas-2.0 >= 2.0.0 libbonoboui-2.0

Without the config.log from the failing port, it's hard to say for sure 
what the problem is.  However, I'm betting you need to to do a  
portupgrade -rf Xft to fix this.

Submitter reports this is fixed after update to fontconfig.
