New description:

 I am trying to install libXext. I used the command "sudo port install
 xorg-libXext". This proceeds fairly well up to a point, then I receive the
 following error:
 {{{
 Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell
 command " cd
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports
 .org_release_ports_x11_xorg-libXext/work/libXext-1.1.1" && ./configure
 --prefix=/opt/local " returned error 1
 Command output: sh: line 0: cd:
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports
 .org_release_ports_x11_xorg-libXext/work/libXext-1.1.1: No such file or
 directory
 }}}
 When I look for the relevant directory, I find that port has created a
 directory called libXext-1.0.99.4, not libXext-1.1.1:
 {{{
 $ls
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports
 .org_release_ports_x11_xorg-libXext/work/

 libXext-1.0.99.4
 }}}
 If I rename libXext-1.0.99.4 to libXext-1.1.1 and call "sudo port install
 xorg-libXext" again, it seems to complete successfully. However, I have
 not tested to see whether it has installed libXext 1.1.1 successfully, or
 libXext 1.0.99.4 masquerading as libXext 1.1.1.
