Comment (by liontooth at cogweb.net):

 Yes, it looks like this is the problem. I issued,

 mkdir
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_multimedia_MPlayer/work/MPlayer-1.0rc2.pkg

 and then used the temporary fix suggested in #10881, "when doing mpkg use
 the -k flag and it will leave the destroot contents," and the building
 started. However, only some packages create the destroot directory:

 jpeg-6b.pkg[[BR]]
 libiconv-1.12.pkg[[BR]]
 libpng-1.2.24.pkg[[BR]]
 libungif-4.1.4.pkg[[BR]]
 ncursesw-5.6.pkg[[BR]]

 Others don't and generate an error similar to the above:

 lame-3.97.pkg[[BR]]
 libmad-0.15.1b.pkg[[BR]]
 libogg-1.1.3.pkg[[BR]]
 libvorbis-1.2.0.pkg[[BR]]
 lzo2-2.02.pkg[[BR]]
 ncurses-5.6.pkg[[BR]]
 pkgconfig-0.22.pkg[[BR]]
 zlib-1.2.3.pkg[[BR]]

 Perhaps someone sees a pattern here?

 If I create all of the missing directories in the destroot, the build
 process nearly completes, but bugs out at the end -- likely just a result
 of previous failed builds:

 {{{
 DEBUG: Executing org.macports.mdmg (MPlayer)
 --->  Creating disk image for MPlayer-1.0rc2
 Error: Target org.macports.mdmg returned: shell command "hdiutil create
 -quiet -fs HFS+ -volname MPlayer-1.0rc2 -size 8702b
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_multimedia_MPlayer/work/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tmp.dmg"
 returned error 1
 Command output:
 Warning: the following items did not execute (for MPlayer):
 org.macports.mdmg<br>
 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
 }}}


 If I run the last command without -quiet,

 hdiutil create -fs HFS+ -volname MPlayer-1.0rc2 -size 8702b
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_multimedia_MPlayer/work/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tmp.dmg
 hdiutil: create failed - File exists

 Remove the file:

 rm
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_multimedia_MPlayer/work/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tmp.dmg

 hdiutil create -fs HFS+ -volname MPlayer-1.0rc2 -size 8702b
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_multimedia_MPlayer/work/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tmp.dmg
 ............................................................................................................................................................
 created:
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_multimedia_MPlayer/work/MPlayer-1.0rc2.tmp.dmg

 # ls -l

 -rw-r--r--@ 1 root  staff  4455424 Dec 21 11:09 MPlayer-1.0rc2.tmp.dmg

 So this works, but several portfiles don't create their own directories as
 they should in a package creation context.

 Cheers,
 Dave
