Comment:

 The main.log is deleted upon successful install unless you set `keeplogs
 yes` in macports.conf or use the `-k` flag when you install. I see you
 figured that out while I was writing my reply.

 The portfile contains the line `supported_archs x86_64 i386`. Since that
 doesn't include arm64, it won't build for arm64. But since it does include
 x86_64, it will intentionally build for x86_64 on your arm64 system since
 that would work fine through Rosetta 2. Or does it not in fact work for
 you?

 The `supported_archs` line has been in the port since the port was
 originally added in 2020 in [2e4272fb37fbc112f3d32450f38c156fd74f69a6
 /macports-ports]. Herby, do you remember why that line was added?

 Kenneth, if you like, you can remove that line and see if the port builds
 for arm64.
