Run 

sudo port selfupdate

to update your local portfile definitions to the latest version. As you can see here, the current version in MacPorts is 3.67:

https://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=name&substr=iso-codes

I don't know how you ended up with an ancient portfile for iso-codes 3.43 on your system if you're new to MacPorts.
