As gcc49 would usually only be necessary for building, that would be
expected. You can always remove pure build dependencies without breaking
any installed ports. However, they might be reinstalled again on the
next upgrade if they are still required.

Unrequested ports without dependents can be removed with the command
'sudo port reclaim' which should be used regularly.

Ok, so you have the MacBook6,1. That is supposed to be supported by High Sierra.

MacPorts doesn't uninstall ports for you unless you ask it to.

The "leaves" pseudoport can be useful to find ports that you may no longer need:

port installed leaves

I assume this upgrade offer is coming from the Mac App Store. I'm not

Yep, the App Store, and no, I don't why either, but it does say

The first time I tried that, I got a message about something being

Its possible you have a port installed using a gcc49 variant, and when

I'm sure you didn't, but after a default variant is chosen the first
time you install, it sticks across upgrades. This proposal would fix
your problem: 

In the meantime, whichever port it is that is using gcc49 should be
changed to not do so on platforms or with Xcode versions where it won't
work. These commands might help find out which one(s): 'port dependents
gcc49', 'port dependents libgcc', 'port installed variant:gcc49'.

The opposite. Newer Xcode versions fail to build gcc49 and older.

What port are you installing/updating that requires gcc49 ? I.e. in your first 
message what was printed prior to

Its possible you have a port installed using a gcc49 variant, and when you

gcc. In these cases you need to manually remove the port and reinstall it with

gcc49 will probably build on 10.16 and 10.17 without too much trouble -- just 
not with the Xcode clang and headers that comes with those systems.

you might get further building it with gcc7.

You will still need to fix this

Why do you suspect that?

The only change in MacPorts 2.5.0 is that it keeps track of which C++ standard 
library ports are using. 2.5.0 neglected to notice a few cases where it was 
possible to infer which C++ library was used when the port did not specify it. 
That's fixed in 2.5.1. So 2.5.1 might not consider gcc49 to be broken and to 
need a reinstall.

However nothing in 2.5.0 or 2.5.1 should have broken the compilation of gcc, so 
the build failure has a different cause.

I won't include the entire log (yet), as I'm sure that I'm not the only 
one.  What I certainly do *not* want, however, is to rebuild GCC, so I 
consider this to be a blessing in disguise :-)


We can't guess what the problem is. Please file a bug report and attach 
the compressed main.log.


I like to make sure that I'm not duplicating a bug report -- how do *you* 
go bug-hunting? -- but OK, one hidously-long filename "main.log.gz" 
attached...


In the meantime, you seem to have missed the other part of my message, 
viz: how do I *not* recompile GCC?  That will bring this old MacBook to 
its knees, and I have better things to do with it than have character echo 
times measured in seconds...

To me this looks like the macports-libstdc++ issue that was solved in
MacPorts 2.5.1.
