installing webkitgtk3: webkitgtk-3.0 version >=1.8 not found

[Blue Glacier]

Hello,

thanks. I am still very confused and I don't understand what the difference between webkitgtk3 and webkitgtk-3.0 is and why one requires the other as dependency.

I found webkit-gtk3 on macports (I am using a mac), but this did not help. I found webkit-gtk-3-devel and tried to install it, but macports says:

Error: webkit-gtk3-devel is not supported for this installation of MacPorts.  It requires libc++ be selected as your C++ runtime.  Please use webkit-gtk3-devel-2.0 instead

So i tried this, but:

$ sudo port install webkit-gtk3-devel-2.0
Error: Port webkit-gtk3-devel-2.0 not found

I need webkit-gtk-xy-whatever to install leksah. Does anyone know how to solve these dependencies on a Mac? Has anyone made it to install leksah on an Apple Computer?
