Welcome to MacPorts! Sorry you're having difficulties. Let's see what we can do.

Your pdflatex (part of the texlive-latex package) is expecting to find version 5 of the poppler library; this library was part of the poppler 0.12.x software. Poppler was recently updated to version 0.14.x, which increased the library version to 6. Therefore texlive-latex needs to have its revision increased so users are advised (via "port outdated") that they need to rebuild. I have filed a ticket in the issue tracker for this problem for you:

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25758

In the mean time, you can forcibly rebuild texlive-latex:

sudo port clean texlive-latex
sudo port -n upgrade --force texlive-latex

Clean mpfr and try again. I checked just now, and the patchfiles do exist on several of the distfiles servers so they should have been downloaded to your computer during the fetch phase.

sudo port clean mpfr
sudo port upgrade mpfr

If it fails again, please provide the complete log file.
