Comment(by nelek@…):

 How am I supposed to work around this if I'm trying to build a package
 with dependencies? Even if i do the workaround, i still get the error for
 each other dependency I'm trying to build. For large sets this is totally
 unworkable.

 And how can a serious bug like this exist for 2 years without a fix??

 [CODE]
 ERROR: The specified root is invalid:
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_archivers_bzip2/work/destroot
 [/CODE]
