I can't explain why, but it certainly sounds like you do not have
MacPorts 1.5.2, though it says you do. destroot.violate_mtree is part
of MacPorts 1.5.2, but your MacPorts doesn't seem to know about it.
Why don't you install MacPorts from source instead. That really has
to work. Download this:
http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/distfiles/MacPorts/
MacPorts-1.5.2.tar.bz2
Decompress it. Go into the directory. Then:
./configure --enable-readline
make
sudo make install
That should be sure to get you MacPorts 1.5.2. Then try installing
any of your previously-failing ports again.

Not sure if this adds any clues,
but tiff installs, then I tried various permutations for ImageMagick
the final one seems to work.

That looks normal to me. Or did you believe you had the gimp port
installed? What is the output of "port installed"?

Ok, so "gimp" is not installed, so it's normal that "sudo port
uninstall
gimp" would produce an error message.
[mac27:~/sun/info] bmcinnes% sudo port install gimp2
Error: Unable to execute port: invalid command name
"destroot.violate_mtree"
[mac27:~/sun/info] bmcinnes% sudo port install gnuplot

destroot.violate_mtree was added in MacPorts 1.5.1 and improved
quickly
in 1.5.2.
You installed 1.5.0 from the disk image for Leopard, I presume?
Did you
then "sudo port selfupdate" to upgrade to 1.5.2? I mean, "port"
says
you're running 1.520, a.k.a. 1.5.2, but its behavior matches
that of
1.5.0. So this is odd.
Yes I installed the 1.5.0 dmg via the GUI, the have done multiple
port selfupdate
[mac27:~] root# port selfupdate
MacPorts base version 1.520 installed
Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.520
The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated
selfupdate done!
[mac27:~]
The only thing I can see which shouldn't be a problem was I
installed
into /opt/local, then tarred to another partition, and have a sym
link
form /opt/local to the moved files. I did an rsync as well.
The symlink might be ok, but I've never tried it that way.
What do you mean, you did an rsync as well? What did you rsync, using
what command?
I can do it all again, after removing all the files ?
I did some installs using options otherwise they would not install
sudo port install tiff -macosx
You shouldn't need to do that. The macosx variant is automatically
enabled on Mac OS X. I have installed tiff with +macosx with no
problems. What problems did you encounter?
sudo port install ImageMagick +no_x11 +perl
then just tried to download hdf5 and all the science ports.
