 Replying to [comment:5 jantheron]:
 > I used cantera-devel since it appeared from your comments on #55540 that
 you had updated cantera-devel.

 Yes, I updated cantera and cantera-devel.

 > Also, I did run selfupdate before trying again. Today, cantera  seems to
 be pulling in sundials2. However, I got an error in that cantera needs
 sundials2 + atlas, but fetches sundials2 without atlas. I uninstalled
 sundials2, then fetched sundials2 +atlas, and re-run "install cantera".
 Now it builds! Perhaps you can just update your portfile to ensure that
 sundials +atlas is pulled in....

 It is not possible for a port to declare a dependency on a specific
 variant of another port; MacPorts base does not have that capability. (See
 #126.) The best we can do in a portfile is detect if the other port does
 not have the necessary variant, and notify you of that, so that's what we
 do.
