Comment (by ballapete):

 Substituting in
 `/opt/local/var/macports/build/nue.de.rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_x11_pango/pango/work/pango-1.55.0/utils/meson.build`
 on line #49 `'--help-option=--help-all'` with `'--no-discard-stderr'`
 created  a second line of output:

 {{{
   pango @1.50.14_0+x11 requested_variants='' platform='darwin 8'
 archs='ppc' date='2024-02-06T16:01:10+0100'
   pango @1.55.0_0+x11 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 8'
 archs='ppc' date='2025-01-20T23:50:04+0100'
 }}

 but the `man page` is obviously faulty:

 {{{

 Reason:
               image not found

 dyld: Library not loaded: @loaderNovemberb2024o-1.0.0.dylib
 DYLD:(1)
 }}}

 The reason is that `port` did not observe that some `port`s need to be
 rebuilt:

 {{{
 The following ports will be rebuilt:
  boost176 @1.76.0+no_single+no_static+python312
  boost178 @1.78.0+no_single+no_static+python312
  libxml2 @2.13.5
  harfbuzz-icu @10.1.0
  texlive-bin @2024.70613+x11
 Continue? [Y/n]: DEBUG: epoch: in tree: 0 installed: 0
 }}}

 Is the `rev-upgrade` check only run after a little success? Then this is
 the wrong path, because it produces fake success.
