What kind of problem do you believe there is with java?

Some ports do require java. Java used to be part of OS X, but isn’t anymore. MacPorts still kind of assumes it’s there so you may want to install it if you haven’t already.

This suggests you were running another port task in another terminal window at the same time. The lockfile is supposed to ensure that that still works properly…

Ah, I see now why you mentioned java. gcc44 does have java features; I suppose it might require java to be installed.

Then clean and try again. If you have java installed and it still fails, then you’ll have the log file and can file a ticket.
