New description:

 When I try to upgrade or install py27-qscintilla I get the error "This
 version of QScintilla requires sip 4.16 or later."

 I have run these commands, but to no avail.
 {{{
   580 port installed qscintilla
   579  sudo port clean *qsci*
   580  sudo port selfupdate
   581  sudo port -p upgrade *qsci*
   582  sudo port -v install py-qscintilla
   583  ls
   584  sudo ports ls
   585  sudo port clean qscintilla
   586  sudo port upgrade qscintilla
   587  sudo port clean qscintilla
 }}}

 the relevant log line is here:

Comment:

 The error from py27-qscintilla that sip 4.16 or later is required does not
 make sense to me, since py27-sip is a dependency of py27-pyqt4 which is a
 dependency of py27-qscintilla, and py27-sip is at version 4.16.1.

 The error you're getting from sip (and the relevant lines are likely
 before the ones you showed us) should be reported to the developers of
 sip, as it says in the error message. I'm not seeing that problem on my
 system either.
