Sierra 10.12.6 (won't go any further), MacPorts 2.6.3 on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro.

(Looks like "poppler" is part of "xpdf", my favourite PDF viewer.)

Whenever I do my regular "port upgrade outdated" I keep seeing the following, and it's starting to annoy me:

    --->  Configuring poppler
    Error: poppler cannot be built while another version of poppler is active.
    Error: Please forcibly deactivate the existing copy of poppler, e.g. by 
running:
    Error:
    Error:     sudo port -f deactivate poppler
    Error:
    Error: Then try again.
    Error: Failed to configure poppler: poppler is active

The "fix" is obvious of course, but before I file a bug report is this a known problem? Error log available upon request.

Thanks.

(And yes, I know that I have a number of replies to acknowledge, but I've been busy/sick lately; comes from being in my late 60s.)
