 Yeah, I remember running into some weird problems like this with rev-
 update. Try to uninstall py24-matplotlib,

 {{{
 sudo port uninstall py24-matplotlib
 }}}

 You might need to use --follow-dependents (and keep track of what that
 uninstalled, in case you need it). If you're using python27, then you
 might want to uninstall all python24 ports (I'm assuming they were
 installed by accident? Most likely a typo with some port without specify
 '27', e.g. py-someport?)

 {{{
 port installed py24-*
 sudo port uninstall py24-*
 }}}
