Comment:

 In the future, please file a separate ticket for each issue instead of
 combining multiple issues into a single ticket. That makes it easier to
 track the solutions of the individual issues.

 The error message you showed above says that MacPorts failed to install
 BWToolkit, as a dependency of MongoExplorer. As you see from the error
 message, BWToolkit only works on OS X 10.5 and 10.6, not earlier nor later
 versions; it is not within our realm of responsibility to fix that. On
 those systems, BWToolkit and MongoExplorer should install fine. If you
 require support for this software on other versions of OS X, you'll have
 to take that up with the developers of the software.

 If you're not able to build MongoHub, please attach a main.log file
 showing the failure. I realize MongoHub in MacPorts is outdated, but the
 developer of MongoHub had originally made it very difficult to build his
 software; the version I added to MacPorts in February 2015, 2.7b10, was
 the latest version I was able to build at the time. I attempted to work
 with the developer to resolve this so that we could update MongoHub in
 MacPorts to a newer version, but last I checked, I was still not able to
 build it. However, it has been over 7 months since I last checked.
