New description:

 I am trying to install a free program called Scala that requires
 installation of MacPorts, and the ports "fontconfig" and "gtk2".  These
 two seemed to install correctly from the terminal with the following
 commands:

 {{{
 sudo port install fontconfig
 sudo port install gtk2
 }}}

 which tells me (if I understand the way MacPorts works) I installed both
 Macports, and these specific ports correctly.

 The instructions then ask me to modify my ".profile" file adding this
 line:

 {{{
 export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
 }}}

 which I did, and then install the libpng 1.4.5 or Combo Installer, which I
 did.

 Then, because I have a 64 bit Imac, I was asked to use the following
 terminal command:

 {{{
 sudo port upgrade --enforce-variants gtk2 +universal,
 }}}

 and when doing this I got the following error messsage:

 {{{
 Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see log
 for details)
 Log for p5.12-xml-parser is at:
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_perl_p5
 -xml-parser/p5.12-xml-parser/main.log
 Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1
 }}}

 Could anyone help me figure out why I cannot do this?
