Hi folks.

I'm installing gEDA and PCB for the first time on an iMac using MacPorts, and during the PCB install I get this error:

   "Error: org.macports.configure for port pcb returned: configure failure: command execution failed"

Mac OSX 10.10.3
Installed the latest XCode, no problems.
Installed MacPorts, selfupdated, no problems.
Did a "sudo port install geda-gaf", no problems.

Did a "sudo port install pcb" and here's the error message:


--------
--->  Configuring pcb
Error: Failed to configure pcb, consult /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_x11_pcb/pcb/work/pcb-20140316/config.log
Error: org.macports.configure for port pcb returned: configure failure: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port pcb for details:

To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:

And here's the end of the log:

Is this something I did or didn't do?  Is there a workaround?
