Python25 is required but cannot be installed.

MacPorts 1.9.1

Update : I use "universal_archs x86_64 i386"

All this tells us is that python25 had an error installing. You need to attach the log mentioned in the output.

Ok, I thought it was a dirty dependency between gettext-lint and an outdated Python version.

Compiler's options refers to PPC, strange !

 /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 -c -arch ppc -arch i386

Update : in the Makefile, I have replaced "-arch ppc" by "-arch x86_64", and failed again. But with only "-arch x86_64" it build.
