#72233: Starting this week it fails to install on MacOS 13
-------------------------+--------------------
 Reporter:  pawelsalawa  |      Owner:  (none)
     Type:  defect       |     Status:  new
 Priority:  High         |  Milestone:
Component:  ports        |    Version:
 Keywords:               |       Port:  icu
-------------------------+--------------------
 The icu port is currently not installable
 (https://github.com/pawelsalawa/sqlitestudio/actions/runs/14026495697/job/39266008172),
 whereas it used to work just fine a week ago from now
 (https://github.com/pawelsalawa/sqlitestudio/actions/runs/13890784466/job/38862308988).
 The GitHub action used in both these cases did not change across this time
 span.

 The problem is 100% repeatable, each time on a fresh GitHub Action runner
 instance (MacOS 13, ix86).

 The code in the GitHub action that attempts the installation is `sudo port
 install icu +universal`. The error message is:
 {{{
 --->  Fetching archive for icu
 --->  Installing icu @76.1_0+universal
 Error: Failed to install icu: no destroot found at:

 Error: See

 for details.
 Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets if you believe
 there is a bug.
 Error: Processing of port icu failed
 Error: Process completed with exit code 1.
 }}}

 Today I've updated the action to download the log file mentioned in this
 error message (i.e.
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_devel_icu/icu/main.log).
 It's contents are rather short and pretty much the same as general error
 message from action log:
