Comment (by kencu):
Some of your installed ports are so old that they don't exist any more,
and others don't build on a current system or are no longer appropriate
for a current system.
If there were salaried engineers working on MacPorts, perhaps the restore
script would look for this and fix it up for you, but it's a volunteer
project and nobody has fixed up the restore scripts to that degree, so far
at least.
If you want to start completely fresh, just look through your list and
install the ones you actually want, like octave or whatever, and let them
pull in current supporting ports.
If you want some help, you can post up your list here and someone will
help you trim off the stuff that is too old to restore, if you prefer
that.
