 Replying to [ticket:23110 flovko@…]:
 > DEBUG: OS Version: 10.0.0

 Please update to Mac OS X 10.6.2, a.k.a. Darwin 10.2.0.


 > DEBUG: No need to upgrade! expat 2.0.1_0 >= expat 2.0.1_0

 It says expat 2.0.1_0 is installed...


 > --->  Activating expat @2.0.1_0 [[br]]
 > Error: The following dependencies failed to build: expat libiconv gperf
 ncurses ncursesw

 ...but then it tries to activate expat and fails. Perhaps expat is
 installed but not active? I don't know why it wouldn't be able to activate
 it; MacPorts doesn't appear to have explained what error it encountered.
 Try uninstalling expat, cleaning it, and installing it again.

 {{{
 sudo port clean expat
 sudo port -f uninstall expat
 sudo port install expat
 }}}

 What port were you trying to install? gettext? Try cleaning that too
 before reattempting installation.

 {{{
 sudo port clean gettext
 }}}
