 I am getting the following error when I try to build the vlc port on my
 powermac g4.

 {{{
 herminio-hernandezs-power-mac-g4:~ herminio$ sudo port install vlc

 Error: VLC cannot be installed for the configured build_arch 'ppc' because
 it only supports the arch(s) 'x86_64'.
 To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
     http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
 Error: Processing of port vlc failed

Comment:

 The message is correct. The VLC port does not support PowerPC processors.
 It requires an x86_64 processor.
