Comment:

 Note that "port list" tells you what is available, not what is installed.
 If you want to know what is installed, use "port installed". I just wanted
 to verify that you were using a copy of Eterm installed with MacPorts, not
 an Eterm installed from somewhere else.

 Duplicate #48966 showed additional helpful output:

 {{{
 curl progress callback failed: can't read "env(COLUMNS)": no such variable
 }}}

 I tried using MacPorts inside MacPorts Eterm @0.9.6_1, and though I didn't
 get the failure you got, the progress bar was not displayed correctly. I
 am running trunk, not 2.3.3, and I have modified the progress bar code in
 my copy of MacPorts, so that may account for the difference. I can try to
 undo my local changes and see if I see the problem then. Also, if you
 want, you could build trunk and see if you still see the problem then; it
 may be something we already fixed but have not released yet.
