Comment (by ryandesign):

 Most of the changes in 2.9.0 were from Josh.

 What immediately stood out for me in your output above is that the
 destroot phase was run before the test phase. That didn't happen in
 MacPorts 2.8.x and earlier. Does the destroot phase of your port or the
 portgroups it includes move or delete that file it's looking for? If so,
 that means the tests in those ports were already broken prior to MacPorts
 2.9.0 if the destroot phase had been run before running the test phase.

 Looking through the 2.9.0 release notes, only one change mentions the test
 phase: [ddc26554e6ed49ce8501069b967284739fa6d34e/macports-base]. I see
 right at the top of that diff the change that makes the test phase now
 require the destroot phase.
