Is there a macport port of evince? evince is the new document viewer  
in gnome, and I think gtkprint uses it for some part of printing even  
if you aren't previewing the job. If you are previewing printing,  
then any gtkprint certainly uses evince to display your print job on  
the screen.

I'm puzzled why you didn't get some kind of error during some build.

You might be able to recover by just installing evince, without  
having to rebuild anything else. (But I'm not certain of that, either.)
