Thank you !
port echo maintainer:nomaintainer | wc -l

Gosh, there is a lot of packages not maintained !
It could be interesting to launch a call for maintainers on the blog ?

Hmmm - I'm a maintainer of three ports - and waiting since one to three
weeks for commitments ...
If this happens to new maintainers - think they will not be maintainers
for very long

I would second that!
As only a lurker on this list, but an active user of LaTeX and
macports, I uninstalled teTeX last year in favour of texlive. While it
is not perfect (ideally it would be a core system with additional
packages installed as required directly from CTAN with some form of
auto-update) it is what is available "right now". It is a pain
installing anything using macports that has TeX as a dependency and
subsequently having teTeX installed automatically. It is easy to then
fix, but still an annoyance!
Best wishes,
Mark
NB: Must say a thank-you for making macports available - it is really
rather good, and I rely on it all the time

I've created a ticket [1] requesting TeXmacs' dependency be updated
from teTeX to texLive. But in light of recent emails to the list about
teTeX failing to build on Leopard (which I hope to be running soon), I
think the teTeX port itself should be reconsidered. It is no longer
being maintained upstream, and new releases have been discontinued
since May 2006. The author of teTeX even suggests that users move on
to using texLive. So I think it would be wise to evaluate the
inclusion of, and dependencies on, teTeX.

I'm trying to install libffi, which apparently needs a 'pyobjc-1.4.tar.gz'
file to install. It's failing on the fetch as follows. Should I put a
ticket in?

As the subject states, I'm looking to find a way to use Leopard's ruby
with Macport's ruby libraries like rb-rubygems, rb-mysql, et al. The main
reason for doing this is so that I can use DTrace probes for ruby
applications.
Would a DTraced ruby be in the horizon for Macports?
I don't have Leopard and won't see it for quite some time. What does it take
to make an app DTrace-able? Is this something that can be done in the port?

There's a diff for the Joyent port of Ruby with Dtrace probes enabled here:
http://svn.joyent.com/opensource/dtrace/ruby/patches/ruby-dtrace-1.8.6.diff
I'll hazard a guess that this can be compiled into Macports' Ruby during
installation?
