Comment (by adam.bartley@…):

 Replying to [comment:2 larryv@…]:
 > That is to say, the `dbus` port is trying to install a file
 `/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist` that already
 exists. I suspect you didn’t use `port uninstall` to remove your ports
 before deleting `/opt/local`. In any case, you could either remove that
 file manually and re-run `port activate dbus`, or you could use `port -f
 activate dbus` to let MacPorts overwrite the file itself.

 Actually, I did use port uninstall. It then proceded to hang, spending
 over an hour stuck on one port. At *that* point I trashed the lot and
 started again. Don't assume that people have not tried to do the right
 thing before they contacted you. Sometimes the port tools are much less
 than brilliant. This has been one of those occasions.
