I'm trying to install rb-mongrel (via MacPorts on OSX 10.4.8), but one
of the dependencies is failing - namely rb-daemons.

The following is what i'm receiving from the command-line when trying to 
install rb-daemons on it's own;

> $ sudo port install rb-daemons

After reading man port, I guessed the port list may be out of date, so I
ran sudo port sync, but am still having the same issue.

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I'd rather avoid
using gem to install it (I gather from reading other posts on the
mailing list that mixing port installs with gem installs is something
that should be avoided).

Thanks,

Cam
