 UPD. Apparently, the issue was that I had to keep `R` at 4.2.3 due to
 this: #67298
 But R PG was updated to have 4.3.0.

 Reverting R PG to 4.2.3 seems to fix everything.

 _____________________________________________________________________
 Examples:
 {{{
 --->  Testing R-markovmix
 * using log directory ‘/opt/local/var/macports/build
 /_opt_PPCRosettaPorts_R_R-
 markovmix/R-markovmix/work/markovmix/markovmix.Rcheck’
 * using R version 4.2.3 (2023-03-15)
 * using platform: powerpc-apple-darwin10.8.0 (32-bit)
 * using session charset: UTF-8
 * checking for file ‘markovmix/DESCRIPTION’ ... OK
 * this is package ‘markovmix’ version ‘0.1.0’
 * package encoding: UTF-8
 * checking package namespace information ... OK
 * checking package dependencies ... ERROR
 Package suggested but not available: ‘ggplot2’

 The suggested packages are required for a complete check.
 Checking can be attempted without them by setting the environment
 variable _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ to a false value.

 See section ‘The DESCRIPTION file’ in the ‘Writing R Extensions’
 manual.
 * DONE

 Status: 1 ERROR
 }}}

 I recall at least one more case with another package.

 What goes wrong?

 I don't know anything about R, sorry.
