Comment (by qwertjadaml@…):

 Dear jeremyhu at macports.org,

 I took the strength not to be kind despite your “User error”
 statement—which I try my best not to note it further on—and try to take my
 time to explain it to you, that the issue clearly exists and valid, as in
 the compiler cannot find the “HIServices/Processes.h” file, and that fact
 is anything ''but'' a user error. (Unless you referring yourself.)

 I personally use the "sudo port upgrade outdated -uR" command line to
 perform the full upgrade—right after "sudo port selfupdate"—which because
 of this error it does not fully finish.

 Apple seems to quite freely changes their API, so it wouldn't surprise me,
 if something has changed regarding header file or library locations or
 rearrangement. I couldn't find the header file, however I could find the
 HIServices.framework.

 Your next sentence however implies that either the necessary dependencies
 are not installed, which is absurd, since MacPort installs all required
 port marked as depending port for that particular port; ''or'' you're
 asking the user to install the MacPorts Dependencies command line tools,
 which seems to be non-existent.

 Do you think you can take a look in to it what is the issue is, or you're
 not convinced by all these that it is actually an issue here?
