Comment (by kencu):

 I believe the "error" in this original ticket is not an error at all. I
 suspect it's just the way the code was written here in the qmake5
 portgroup:

 https://github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/blob/81fa4a06d2d1d419029bf9714b0558819cd164ea/_resources/port1.0/group/qmake5-1.0.tcl#L58

 as per this commit:

 https://github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/commit/9887e90d69f4265f9056cddc45e41551d7400235#commitcomment-49824261

 The code is supposed to generate an error if the specific SDK can't be
 found, and as written is meant to then fall back to a generic sdk named
 "macosx".

 So, short answer -- there is nothing to fix here, for the original ticket
 at least, other than find a way to prevent the error from being printed to
 the screen that confuses people.

 What other errors might be causing people to have build issues remain to
 be discovered, I support. My build of qt5-qtcreator on Monterey 12.3.1 is
 still going on.
