Confirmed: I'm seeing exactly the same issue on 10.6. I'm not sure how to solve it, though: even with the debug output, I'm not sure exactly where python.prefix is being called without being defined. (It doesn't help that I'm not very familiar with the internals of Macports.) I tried manually setting that variable, both in the main body of the port and in the post-destroot section (which seems to be where it's failing), but nothing changed. Anyone else want to take a look at this issue?

PortGroup was never designed to be used anywhere but right after PortSystem, for one thing.

I'm seeing the exact same error.
I'm afraid I have no clue how this all works though. I've tried editing the Portfile but it seems to ignore those changes.
Log attached.

Same problem here. Note that it only appears when using python2.6. A workaround is then to use the python25 variant.
