gcc9 works just fine on 10.14 so whatever you did to get into the state above, it is not normal. A few comments. - Did you *really* correctly follow the migration instructions at https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration <https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration> ? as I am not sure how you could get into such a mess if you had. Did you really remove *all* ports in order to reinstall them ? - When you get errors like those above, you have to look into the log file that is referenced. e.g. > Error: Failed to configure gdbm, consult > /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_databases_gdbm/gdbm/work/gdbm-1.18.1/config.log so, what does that log say ? Honestly, the simplest solution might be to start again, as if you are doing an OS migration. So follow the instructions above, making sure to remove everything. I would also suggest *not* just blinding reinstalling everything you previously had, so once you get to a point where you have an empty vanilla MacPOrts installation, please just run > sudo port sync > sudo port install gcc9 that, should work just fine. Then you can go from there adding what else you want. Chris
