You're right, the error occurs during activation in that ticket - due  
to the Python Frameworks bug.

Are you on Tiger? What version of Xcode are you running? Have you run  
"sudo port selfupdate" and then "sudo port upgrade outdated" recently?

To do what you want, you could change the portfile command to:

	configure.post_args-append  LFLAGS="-F${prefix}/Library/Frameworks -L$ 
{prefix}/lib"

But that is not a general fix because the configure phase works fine  
on Leopard as it is.


Cheers!
