can't install ports

[graham@…]

I have recently installed MacPorts but am having problems using it to install ports. For example, I have tried installing ImageMagick with the following result:

usage: install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]

[-o owner] file1 file2

install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]

[-o owner] file1 ... fileN directory

install -d [-v] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] directory ...

I thought it might be a problem with ImageMagick so selected other ports at random but always got the same result.

I have unistalled MacPorts, then re-installed it but this has not helped.

I am usimg macPorts 1.7.0. My OS is Leopard 10.5.6

Any help would be much appreciated.
