 So, you've configure MacPorts to extract using MacPorts lbzip2, and
 MacPorts lbzip2 requires legacy-support to work (ever since the fix for
 #65878), and you're upgrading legacy-support, which means that at the
 moment that MacPorts wants to extract the new legacy-support, it can't,
 because MacPorts lbzip2 has been broken by deactivating the previous
 version of legacy-support.

 This is why it's a good idea, if you want to have MacPorts use lbzip2, to
 have it use a copy of it ''not'' installed by MacPorts (and that does
 ''not'' use any libraries installed by MacPorts).
