In case people are still having issues on this, py27-spyder installs a 
'spyder' executable (actually a symlink to a python script) in 
$(prefix)/bin (typically /opt/local/bin/spyder). It also installs 
spyder-2.7 link. So they don't have a conflict, py26-spyder only installs 
the spyder-2.6 link.

Short answer: 
1) Make sure PATH contains /opt/local/bin (or wherever you have put 
MacPorts. You "really should use" /opt/local (the default) so you can take 
advantage of pre-compiled packages from MacPorts.)
2) Use 'spyder' or 'spyder-2.7' for py27-spyder
3) Use 'spyder-2.6' for py26-spyder

Thanks,
