Are you literally typing “[+variants]”? If so, that’s wrong. You can specify variants there, such as “sudo port install py26-numpy +universal” or if you don’t want to use any variants you can just use “sudo port install py26-numpy”. You can get a list of available variants for a port by running e.g. “port variants py26-numpy”.

Run “sudo port clean py26-numpy”.
