Of course, thanks, it made it unintentionally.

So this part should be in order now.

OK, I'll consider that after your advice. (When switching from MS Windows  
to MacOSX Tiger, years ago, I had the hope that the OS upgrade necessities  
of Apple-Mac being less frequently necessary/advisable.)

So I did, it has finished without errors just now. I'm proceeding as said  
in the terminal with:

sudo port install python_select
sudo python_select python26

Done. Have I understood well, makes it sense to proceed now again with
$ sudo port install kile-devel
with a chance of success without errors?

I mean without studying the:

isn't it ?????

And a last question due to my meager knowledge of Unix and MacPorts:
The message within the terminal output when installing gtk-doc port:
######################################################################
# As MacPorts does not currently have a post-deactivate hook,
# you will need to ensure that you manually remove the catalog
# entry for this port when you uninstall it.  To do so, run
# "xmlcatmgr remove nextCatalog  
/opt/local/share/xsl/docbook-xsl/catalog.xml".
######################################################################

… is not relevant for the time being, only if once uninstalling gtk-doc  
port, right?

Thanks again with regards,
joachim
