If you don't mind re-installing any installed ports, you could do
something like

rm -Rf /opt/local

Then download and install macports and do:

port selfupdate

and then try again with

port install gnucash

Given that you think my current install is damaged based on the
`port provides` behavior, I could see this as a potentially
reasonable step.  I know of at least one program (NmapFE) which
is installed in /Applications/Darwinports/ rather than
/opt/local.  Is it likely that there is anything else outside
/opt/local?  I also note that the portfile for NmapFE no longer
exists, but I haven't checked yet to see if that's because it's
more of a Cocoa app anyway.

Possibly there are other things outside of /opt/local. Therefore the correct way to remove all of MacPorts is described here:
