 with 2 perquisites.

 and

 {{{
 sudo port install py27-pandas @0.7.3

 When i try to install these prerequisites it says

 Please see the log file for port py27-tkinter for details:
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports

Comment:

 Note that it is not possible to specify a version to install*. "`sudo port
 install py27-matplotlib @1.1.0`" is the same as "`sudo port install
 py27-matplotlib`"—you'll get whatever version happens to be current in
 MacPorts at the time (which at the moment is 1.1.1).

 *unless you follow wiki:howto/InstallingOlderPort
