 While trying to do upgrade I get the following error:

 {{{
 --->  Attempting to fetch GConf-2.28.1.tar.bz2 from
 ftp://ftp.cse.buffalo.edu/pub/Gnome/sources/GConf/2.28/
 --->  Verifying checksum(s) for gconf

 Error: org.macports.configure for port gconf returned: configure failure:

 Please see the log file for port gconf for details:
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_gnome_gconf/gconf/main.log
 }}}

 Looking in main.log I see the following error:

 {{{
 :info:configure checking for suffix of executables...
 :info:configure checking for suffix of object files... configure: error:

 }}}

 It further complains about config.log, but I do not see any obvious errors
 there.

Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 Please attach the main.log and config.log so that we can have a look.
