 Replying to [comment:6 Peter_Dyballa@…]:
 > I had to configure and and build again, the sources were already clean

 I wasn't aware that MacPorts runs distclean. It might just be the next
 rsync that deletes the configuration data, though.

 messages. Uninstall now works quite silently.

 Yes. On uninstall, the Portfiles are only loaded to execute possible `pre
 /post-deactivate` jobs, but even if that fails the removal continues.

 Glad you could solve the issue. I'm not sure that's something we should
 build into MacPorts to detect, as it's probably '''very''' uncommon.
