New description:

 executing

 {{{
 sudo /opt/local/bin/port install geany
 }}}

 gives

 {{{
 Error: Unable to execute port: couldn't open
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_geany/geany/work/.macports.geany.state":
 permission denied

 }}}

 on Mac OS X 10.5.8. I had no problems installing gcc 4.2

Comment:

 `sudo port clean geany` and try again. If that doesn't work, manually
 delete
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_geany,
 clean geany again, and try again.
