 I've been installing scipy and matplot lib on 10.5.3 leopard w/xcode 3.0
 into a fresh 1.6.0 port install.  A number of the dependent packages fail
 at "setup.py build"  however if you run that command from the command line
 they build without errors.  Here is one example:

 Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_python_py25-tkinter/work/Python-2.5.2/Modules"
 && /opt/local/bin/python2.5 setup.py build " returned error 1
 Command output: running build
 running build_ext
 building '_tkinter' extension

 unable to execute -DNDEBUG: No such file or directory
 error: command '-DNDEBUG' failed with exit status 1
 Error: The following dependencies failed to build: py25-tkinter
 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

 and yet if I run the same command from the command line I get:

 bash-3.2$ cd
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_python_py25-tkinter/work/Python-2.5.2/Modules"
 bash-3.2$ sudo  /opt/local/bin/python2.5 setup.py build

 bash-3.2$

 If I then re-rerun the installer, the installer proceeds just fine.

 this happens on some but not all packages.

 I have downloaded and re-installed macports from scratch as of yeasterday
 but this did not fix the issue.

 here is another example:

 Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error:
 /Applications/MacPorts/AquaTerm.app/Contents/Info.plist already exists and
 does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port aquaterm.
 Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gnuplot aquaterm

 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
