The MacPorts Project is pleased to announce the release of version

I'm running an Intel MacBook, APFS root on a SSD, that had a clean
install of Ventura, upgraded in place to Sequoia
It seems very slow for certain CLI actions, particularly ./configure
And this recent macports upgrade took a loooong time in the
"Installing phase":
$ time sudo port selfupdate

Thoughts?
I assume this isn't a machine with a lot of other CPU-heavy tasks. 280
minutes out of 284 doing nothing is a strong sign...
This sounds like what happens when the XCode CLT package has not had its
license accepted. Run this in a shell session:
sudo xcodebuild -license agree
That will emit a wall of text (the CLT license) with the last line
reading:
By typing 'agree' you are agreeing to the terms of the software
license
agreements. Any other response will cancel. [agree, cancel]
Type 'agree' and your Mac will get much faster running command line
tools.
