I get this same response for any port command, even port all by
itself.
Sorry if this is old news but I cannot seem to find an email
archive to search or an decent FAQ on the Wiki. Any pointers to
these resources would also be much appreciated.
It sounds like part of your MacPorts installation is of the wrong
architecture. Have you recently migrated from a PowerPC Mac to an
Intel one, and used Migration Assistant to copy data from your old
machine, including /opt/local? If so, that's a likely reason for
this problem, and I recommend you move /opt/local aside and
reinstall MacPorts from scratch and then reinstall all your ports
so that they build for Intel.
Actually, I migrated from another Intel Mac, where I have no such
problems running port commands. I have never used Macports on a PPC
computer actually--I was a fink user then and migrated to Macports
with my first Intel Mac.
I have not updated to 1.5 on the "good" machine though, and will see
if it is that installation that breaks things.
Cheers
Rob
