As was said, gnucash has lots of dependencies -- so many that my port dependency graph maker just draws a jumble, which you can view here for your undoubtedly great amusement: http://www.ryandesign.com/tmp/gnucash.png (1.2MB) "port variants gnucash" explains that there are some variants which may help a bit: without_quotes, without_hbci, without_ofx, each of which deletes some of the dependencies (at the expense of some feature). _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
