yosemite and 2008/9 macbookpro compatability, macports install settings for older architecture?

[^. .^]

hey all,

i recently upgraded a late 2008 macbookpro to yosemite. with SSD it seems
to work ok.

when running macports to install software i get the following error

<quote>
 Error: Cannot install ImageMagick for the arch(s) 'x86_64' because
 Error: its dependency libtool is only installed for the arch 'i386'
 Error: and the configured universal_archs 'i386 ppc' are not sufficient.
 Error: Unable to execute port: architecture mismatch
</quote>


I found the macports.conf file and uncommented
build_arch   i386

and i cleaned all. but the error remains the same. this machine did not
have macports on it last time around so i did not follow the whole list of
migration commands. but should i?

or what else am i missing?



Thanks,
danjo

my machine is this one i think:
