I tried to install py-matplotlib for Python and got most of the way
through, before being told that some port was in use, and to deactivate
something (should have written it down). I then closed Teminal,
reopened it and started over. I now get a message about py-objc2
failing to install (shown here just as a single install):
<xx>:~ xxx$ sudo port install py-pyobjc2

I have no idea what this implies, but, along with my 'py-biggles'
problem, it suggests to me that running Python under Macports is perhaps
not a reliable process.
But as I don't yet know enough about macports, maybe there's a simple
solution. Any suggestions?
