 hello;

 this is a new macports installation.
 python25 universal fails to install. it is obvious what the problem is.
 universal to python25 mean "ppc and i386" and not "i386 and x86_64"

 python25 is needed by gnome-panel. gnome-panel universal fails because
 of python25 failing.

 note the last line of the above quote.

 i would agree with python25 on the meaning of universal.
 apple downloads indicate an universal binary will run on both ppc and
 i386.
 this is first time i have seen universal mean i386 and x86_64.

 this prevents the installation of anything universal (i386 x86_64) that
 depends
 on python25.
