Oh interesting. Henrik, did you ever try to add subsurface to
macports???

That seems like a user error. I believe that at this point you should be
able to just build (I just saw Robert's response - I think that the only
oddity is the python thing which seems required on some systems but not
others... no patches should be required anymore)

Henrik has been the main maintainer of our Mac port lately... can you
