Yes, if you want to run a MySQL 5 server, you will need to uninstall
the mysql5 port that just got installed (sudo port -f uninstall
mysql5), and then install it with +server (sudo port install mysql5
+server). And this will again take a long time. Sorry...

Thank you for reporting this. I recently removed some stuff from
php5. Before, it would build for apache by default, if you did not
select a variant. I found this behavior weird; the MacPorts way is to
select a variant if you want it. So I removed that logic, but did not
realize what effect it would have on the messages emitted at the end.
I'll fix the messages.
