Comment:

 The log shows that py26-modulegraph is already installed (though
 inactive), so the upgrade procedure tries to upgrade it because it doesn't
 know that the dependency is actually being satisfied by another port.

 This should already be fixed in trunk. Workarounds for now would be to
 uninstall py26-modulegraph entirely, or upgrade it to the latest available
 version so the upgrade procedure will skip it (needs to be done with py26
 -modulegraph-devel inactive of course).
