Update: Builds perfect with command "port -v install subversion" why do most tutorials not have the -v option?

Please remember to preview and use WikiFormatting, and to cc the maintainer.

The -v option doesn't do anything but increase the amount of output displayed. The small excerpt from the log you've shown doesn't contain the actual error, so you'll need to attach the whole thing for us to know why the build failed.
