Comment (by NicoleEic):

 Hello,

 thank you very much for looking into this. I tried the install swig using
 the suggested command, but it didn't change the error message in the
 terminal. Then I ran the following lines, which were executed without
 errors:

 {{{
 $ port clean --all py27-pymvpa

 $ sudo port install swig-python
 --->  Computing dependencies for swig-python
 --->  Cleaning swig-python
 --->  Scanning binaries for linking errors
 --->  No broken files found.
 --->  No broken ports found.


 # recommended installation command from the pymvpa website:
 sudo port install py27-pymvpa +scipy +nibabel +hcluster +libsvm
 +matplotlib +pywavelet

 sudo port select python python27-apple
 }}}

 However, the module was still not available to import for python:

 {{{
 $ python

 }}}

 On the other hand, the issue does not occur with the py35-pymvpa port,
 which allows me to import the module:

 {{{

 }}}

 It seems I can use the module now, but I'd prefer the python27 version,
 which is supposedly more robust. Do you have any suggestion of what I can
 change about the installation command? Will any other log-outputs be
 helpful for you?

 Thank you very much and kind regards,
 Nicole
