Comment (by FaradayLight):

 Replying to [comment:8 kencu]:
 > Faraday, remove +universal from your variants.conf (and the reinstall
 all your ports, which will download buildbot versions). Then you will have
 no, or at least much less, trouble.

 Hi, I can do that and would appreciate it if that prevented the
 difficulties I have encountered but why would it have been set in the
 first place? Before last weekend I did not know enough about MacPorts to
 find confirmation files so some component must have uncommented the
 setting in the conference file.
