Why do you need to build it from source? There are binaries of 1.3 available here:
http://www.hmug.org/pub/MacOS_X/X/Applications/Science/gpredict/
Never built it on my Mac, only on Linux from SVN so can help with that but the binaries should get you going.

Hello,
If one wants the development code which is updated more frequently, one needs to compile their own.

Oscar,
After reading the posts today I figured I would go home and take a quick stab at it. Here is what I have done and my results so-far. Total time for these steps was about 10 minutes (and my port upgrade is still running... grrrrrrr...) Anyhow, hopefully this helps! I'm going to step away from the computer for a bit, when I come back later, i'll report back on the result of my final run!

Oscar,
I did a make install and everything worked. Let me know if you run into any issues. Here's a screenshot!

looks like your RANDR issue is a known bug, looking out on the macports.org website
What does 'Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display "/tmp/launch-XXXXXX/:0"' mean?¶ mailbox:///C%7C/Users/Kevin%20Schuchmann/AppData/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/ezo1336t.default/Mail/Local%20Folders/Inbox.sbd/amsat-bb?number=2241226#randr
Many X11 programs try to use the RANDR extension, and print this warning when it is not available. The RANDR extension is not available in the Apple-provided X11 server in Snow Leopard and earlier. It is supported in XQuartz http://xquartz.macosforge.org 2.6.0 as well as the MacPorts X11 servers.
Unless you have a specific need for RandR functionality, this warning can be safely ignored.
