There is also `gimp3-devel` port, which uses gtk3. I have no idea if it compiles, but it is definitely worth trying at least.

i am not able to compile it, maybe problems with git lock-file. I tried to rename .git dir of gimp2, clean gimp3-devel several times, but no avail.

This is something wrong with the portfile, it seems. Could you open a ticket on Trac?
It probably does not build on any system now, this does not look specific to 10.5 or ppc.

@saxfun, I have VLC 2.0.10 as a Mac-native DMG, running successfully under Mac OS X 10.5.9 Sorbet Leopard, if that would be of interest. I can post it to one of my web sites for download. It is open source, so I believe that doing so is fully "legal".

That’s the last official version. What we are doing here is getting much newer versions to run, and building them against modern ffmpeg and other libs.

Could you say how exactly you try to install samba3?

Or even better run these:
Code: 
sudo port clean samba3
sudo port -v destroot samba3

Notice there is no `-n` flag; we need to be sure that compatible versions are used and conflicts are handled.
(I can build this when back to the Quad; on Rosetta samba will takes ages, and I rather not do it.)

I'll try later, thanks.
ATM I'm building samba4 again, after reading your comment (I did remember something like your command). compiling now.
I built samba3 with the usual "sudo port -v install samba3" and "sudo port -v install samba3 -universal" (read that on trac) after deactivating talloc.

Maybe someone forgot to set a conflict with `tdb` port? You could try deactivating it and then run two commands referenced above (clean and destroot).

I recall it uses a retarded build system (waf?), so perhaps that way of passing flags simply does not have an effect. You can check the log to see if the flag was added or not.

I could probably try making a port for schism and see if it works.
We have all dependencies in MacPorts, right?

Yep, schism only requires SDL and utf8proc which are both in macports.

It builds and GUI seems to work. On my 10a190 SDL is unstable with video and tends to freeze randomly, I need to find time fix OpenGL.
Perhaps should work nicely on 10.5.8 or 10.6.8.

Are you using the `source.tar.gz` tarball to build it? that one has proper version info in the configure script pulled from git and I don't see a version in the photo you posted.

Whatever GitHub supplies as archive (not a tag). It could have been displayed on the welcome screen, but I need to check it on another system, can’t afford system freezes at the moment (just in case, it is an issue between macOS frameworks and SDL2, nothing about your code; I have had the same problems with other SDL2-consuming ports, and the fix, as I recall, was to replace certain components in frameworks).

P. S. Here you go: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/771b8b9fce9daa5d39aa21dc6ae0a22fabd9f158
And: https://ports.macports.org/port/schismtracker
I made it nomaintainer, but if you wish to maintain it, please make a PR.
