There's nothing wrong with this: MacPorts still provides 2.17.2.

I usually manage to have Frescobaldi updated in a couple of days, but it 
is important to note that I cannot commit directly to MacPorts 
repository, so any change I submit needs to be reviewed and applied by a 
developer with commit rights, who in most cases is a volunteer, working 
on MacPorts in the spare time.

This time, due to unexpected circumstances (problems with the patch I 
submitted, problems with the SVN repository, personal problems of the 
developer who took charge of my patch), some important changes to the 
portfile for python-poppler-qt4 (a dependency of Frescobaldi) required 
longer than usual to be reviewed (they've been accepted only yesterday).

Today I'm going to upload the 2.18 update: I hope it will be accepted in 
the usual short time.

Although this is a known issue
(see https://github.com/wbsoft/frescobaldi/issues/428),
I didn't know that the pre-built application is not affected.
Thanks for reporting.

Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce it consistently on my machine, 
but this new piece of information could indeed help a lot.

Best wishes.
