Solved Emacs GTK+ Library Issues

Hi!

I've been trying to get emacs to install correctly, but I haven't had much luck. Here's the log it makes:

And here's the config.log it mentions:

I can't find what the issue is; I've made sure that GTK is installed, and several other applications are running fine (namely Leafpad and Seamonkey). The strange thing is, switching it to use Xaw or Motif fails too; then it complains these are missing or not installed correctly. I have an x server running just fine, and in fact am typing this all out under one. No other application is complaining about it, only emacs is, and portmaster doesn't say there's any uninstalled dependencies or anything...
 
Same error message on my system. Seems a bug. But after installing devel/ncurses compiles and installs fine.

I find it, cause I am try it with gcc48 and got this line in the error message (is not in yours):

Code: 
configure: error: The required function `tputs' was not found in any library.
The following libraries were tried (in order):
  libtinfo, libncurses, libterminfo, libtermcap, libcurses
Please try installing whichever of these libraries is most appropriate
for your system, together with its header files.
For example, a libncurses-dev(el) or similar package.

Send a mail to the maintainer.
I think a warning should appear before starting the complation, so you can see it also if you start with clang.
(If I remember right, I think this an old issue).
 
Sorry for taking so long, got tied up over the weekend with some things. I tried it today, and installing devel/ncurses worked perfectly! It was one of those ports that slipped past me during the rebuild of everything. Thank you tremendously for your help! ^~^
