I suppose it is hanging on a stale lock, as I have seen several such reports on IRC (already with 1.6, this is not new). But I don't know the reason for these locks. Probably force-exiting port using Ctrl-c during activate/deactivate could leave this lock file around. Check first if there is any other running instance of port: ps aux | grep port If there is not, stop the running port instance first (Ctrl-c) and check again - just to be sure. Then check for the lock file: /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/dep_map.bz2.lock If it is there, remove it. After that, trying the previous command again should work.
