I check the information on gdb and know that I'd like to update from the MacOS 
version, which is quite old.

After performing the 'install' action, gdb doesn't show up in /opt/local/bin.
So I 'uninstall' it and try the install again, same result.

What is going on? Is something in my port package broken?

503_ port info gdb
gdb @7.5 (devel)
Variants:             universal

Description:          GDB, the GNU Project debugger, allows you to see what is 
going on 'inside' another program while
                      it executes -- or what another program was doing at the 
moment it crashed. GDB can do four main
                      kinds of things (plus other things in support of these) 
to help you catch bugs in the act: a)
                      start your program, specifying anything that might affect 
its behavior, b) make your program stop
                      on specified conditions, c) examine what has happened, 
when your program has stopped, d) change
                      things in your program, so you can experiment with 
correcting the effects of one bug and go on to
                      learn about another. The program being debugged can be 
written in Ada, C, C++, Objective-C, Pascal
                      (and many other languages). Those programs might be 
executing on the same machine as GDB (native)
                      or on another machine (remote). GDB can run on most 
popular UNIX and Microsoft Windows variants.
