Since upgrading to 10.6 ports has been disasterous for me. I don't think I've had a single port install cleanly.

You're seeing things saying that things weren't where they were expected to be and that there are oopsies in the source. Did you upgrade MacPorts to the Snow Leopard flavor of 1.8? And reinstall Xcode from the SL DVD?

I did, and it still didn't work. So I moved /opt to /optqw and created a new /opt, then reinstalled the SL MacPorts. After that, it was better, but still not perfect.

But it did make it through perl5.8 with no trouble.

See if you can build perl5.8 on a bare naked fresh install of MacPorts. I had several problems due to architecture mis-matches in programs built on 10.5 that MacPorts didn't flag as outdated, so they weren't rebuilt.

As has been said before, big builds seem to quit in the middle, but issuing the install command again picks up where it left off and the error no longer happens. Did here, anyway...
