Someone else already suggested that my Macports needs updating but I've
donte that already.
Yes /opt exists.
barcajax:~ barcajax$ echo $PATH
/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin
Ports installed
barcajax:~ barcajax$ port installed
The following ports are currently installed:
 expat @2.0.0_1
 gettext @0.16.1_0
 libiconv @1.11_4+darwin_8
 perl5.8 @5.8.8_0+darwin_8 (active)
 pkgconfig @0.21_0 (active)
Gettext is already in there.

Any other suggestions?

What does the above mean?


Not sure how you got this far but it does happen. My course would be to
update my ports (port sync/port selfupdate).
Some questions. Does your path have the /opt hierarchy in it?

 % echo $PATH

/opt/local/libexec:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin

What ports do you have installed?

% port installed
The following ports are currently installed:
  Xft2 @2.1.7_0 (active)
  aalib @1.4rc5_2 (active)
  aspell @0.60.5_0 (active)
  at-spi @1.18.1_0 (active)
  atk @1.18.0_0 (active)
  audiofile @0.2.6_0 (active)
  autoconf @2.61_0 (active)
  automake @1.10_0 (active)
  avahi @0.6.16_1 (active)
  bison @2.3_0 (active)
  bug-buddy @2.18.0_0 (active)
  bzip2 @1.0.4_1 (active)
[....]

Do you have gettext in there? Either, it might be worth installing it with
-f (port -f install gettext). It should go quickly, since it has all of two
dependencies, I think.

If that works, try your other command again and let us know how you get
on.
