 port diag returns:

 {{{
 Warning: couldn't find file
 '/opt/local/lib/ghc-8.10.4/time-1*9.3/Data/Time/Calendar/Week.p_hi' for
 port 'ghc'. Please deactivate and reactivate the port to fix this issue.
 }}}

 ls -l /opt/local/lib/ghc-8.10.4/time-1*9.3/Data/Time/Calendar/Week.p_hi
 returns:

 {{{

 ghc itself seems to work fine. It may be relevant that I rarely use
 macport's ghc, relying instead on "ghcup", which maintains several
 versions of ghc.
 (So for me, this bug/glitch, whether it is in "port" or "ghc", is of
 supreme unimportance :)

 sudo port deactivate ghc returns:

 {{{

 (The log will be attached.)
