 Thank you.

 > I suggest you do precisely what MacPorts is asking your to do, and
 uninstall the ports that it says. You could also use the `-f` flag for the
 `port` command to force it to uninstall and ignore the dependency.

 > By the way, the "cannot stat file" is a problem I occasionally see when
 there is minor filesystem corruption. I suggest you boot to your recovery
 partition and "repair" your disk before you proceed.
