# port selfupdate ---> Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync MacPorts base version 2.0.3 installed, MacPorts base version 2.0.3 downloaded. ---> Updating the ports tree ---> MacPorts base is already the latest version

But then the 'install coreutils' worked...

The port p5.12-locale-gettext does indeed exist. You need to selfupdate as stated in the first comment.
