We haven't made PowerPC binaries of any ports in many years. It isn't a problem since then MacPorts will automatically build from source; there is no need to specify the -s flag except to get MacPorts to avoid checking for the nonexistent URLs. You can also change buildfromsource to always in macports.conf to make that happen every time without needing to use -s on the command line every time.
