Comment (by kencu):

 David, after three weeks of trying, you're no further ahead. This issue
 appears to be with your local installation of MacPorts, rather than
 MacPorts itself. Your installation of MacPorts appears to be in an
 inconsistent state.

 Although it might possibly be repairable, the skills and time and
 iterations involved would be not worthwhile IMHO.

 At this point, I would personally reset the installation by uninstalling
 MacPorts
 <https://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html>
 and then reinstalling MacPorts using all default values and the MacPorts
 installer. This would take about 20 minutes, and is (virtually) guaranteed
 to work.

 To see what ports you have requested and installed already, usually you
 can run this:
 {{{
 port list requested > ~/myrequestedports.txt
 }}}
 I'm not certain that command will work correctly for you given your
 current state of things, but you can try it.

 Make sure you don't have a simultaneous installation of homebrew in
 `/usr/local`, or any software in `/usr/local` for that matter, to mess
 things up during your reinstall of MacPorts.
