I tried the latter after installing MacPorts and it seems to be hanging at 'Building gtk2' after 30 minutes.
I must have done something wrong. Any advice?

Hi, Paul.
Hard to tell from what you have said here but a few ideas:
If this is a new install of MacPorts, please make sure you have installed everything as recommended in the guide. Particularly, the installation of Xcode and the command line tools and that you have updated the ports tree to the latest version using
$ sudo port selfupdate
Then, try a clean install of just gtk2 +quartz using the debug mode (-d) for more information. The question is, is it hanging or just taking a long time to compile? If hanging, where exactly is that happening?
$ sudo port clean gtk2 $ sudo port install -d gtk2 +quartz
Note also the location of the detailed build log can be found using the command
$ port logfile gtk2
This is probably OT for most here so feel free to contact me directly or file a MacPorts ticket CCing me as mentioned above for futher follow up.
Also mention which Mac you are using and the Mac OS X version. This version of Inkscape has built successfully on the MacPorts buildbots for 10.6 thru 10.12. Earlier OS versions that that or PPC platforms may be problematic.
Hope this helps Dave
