openldap install problem

[Keith Prussing]

I'm trying to install openldap (actually neomutt and poppler) but it
is failing to install. I have a shiny new MacBook running the latest
Sequoia. When I try to install openldap (or one of the real ports that
depend on it) I get a pop up stating:

    “Terminal” would like to administer your computer. Administration
can include modifying passwords, networking, and system settings.

I click on "Allow"  but the install still fails.

The terminal output is:

    % sudo port -v install openldap
    --->  Computing dependencies for openldap.
    --->  Installing openldap @2.6.9_0
    Error: dscl(1) was killed by -level: 0
    Error: Failed to install openldap: can't read "eMessage": no such variable
    Error: See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_databases_openldap/openldap/main.log
for details.
    Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets if you
believe there is a bug.
    Error: Processing of port openldap failed

What am I missing?  I'm sure this is a local configuration/user error
since I can't locate a previous report.
