Comment (by tactical231):

 Hi,

 Didn't realize +universal was the default build for ports (clisp?) now -
 my original command was "sudo port install clisp".

 So far the only commands I have given since installing macports are "sudo
 port self update" , "sudo port install qemu", "sudo port install xorg-
 server" and the clisp above. Everything has worked fine except clisp. I
 also reset the portdbpath to /Volumes/LaCieSilver/MacPorts in
 macports.conf.

 Changed /opt/local/etc/variants.conf to include "-universal", did a "sudo
 port clean --all clisp" and "sudo port clean --all ffcall" and ran:

 sudo port install clisp -universal

 I still the the "+universal" build fetch and get the same error (below).
 Any idea on how I stop if from trying to do +universal for the port?

 Thanks.

 % sudo port install clisp -universal
