 I am running MacPorts under Snow Leopard, and something seems to be messed
 up in such a way that various ports cannot be deactivated.  Here is an
 example:

 bash-3.2$ sudo port deactivate freetype @2.3.12_0+macosx
 --->  Deactivating freetype @2.3.12_0+macosx

 This command hangs forever.  Nothing appears in the log file.  The only
 way to stop it is with a "sudo kill <pid>" command.  Is there any way to
 get more verbose output from the port command, so that I can find out
 what's going wrong?  Can I deactivate the port manually?

 The same thing happens with other "deactivate" commands.  I think the
 problem might have arisen because I issued the command "sudo port upgrade
 outdated" and then lost internet connectivity while the command was still
 executing.
