The directory has two files: Fig and Fig-color
I tried redoing this multiple times and variations (with -f,
etc.), but to no avail.
sudo port -d clean xfig
then try upgrading again.
Cleaning and reinstalling was one of the first variations I tried.
No difference in behavior. I think it is must be a bug in the
install script for xfig?
xfig installs fine for me. But I believe I encountered this problem
too, back when I had the XFree86 port installed. IIRC uninstalling
XFree86 and using Apple's X11 instead was the workaround.
But it would be nice if the port would work with both environments,
and you should file a bug about this in Trac. Be sure to assign it to
the port's maintainer. Instructions on filing bugs are here:
