Comment(by pbfuddle@…):

 I am sorry, I missed the part about running activate again, and posted
 more comments; however; I just did so and it appears that it worked this
 time:

 '''activating file: /Applications/MacPorts/Python 2.6/Python
 Launcher.app/Contents/Resources/PythonSource.icns'''     or '''activating
 directory:. . .'''         etc. for a whole page worth of similar
 statements.  I did not see any errors.



 Do I continue with the scite install now?

 Applet.app/Contents/Info.plist already exists and does not belong to a
 registered port.  Unable to activate port python26.

 > This usually happens when you try to remove all of MacPorts but don't
 include the stuff in /Applications/MacPorts (the
 [http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html
 guide covers all bits to remove] if you're curious).  If that's the case
 then you should be able to just {{{rm -rf "/Applications/MacPorts/Python
 2.6"}}} then do the activate again.
