The relevant error in the log seems to be a problem with xsltproc crashing:

:info:build /opt/local/bin/xsltproc -nonet http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl eggdbus-binding-tool.xml
:info:build make[3]: *** [eggdbus-binding-tool.1] Segmentation fault

However, before we spend time analyzing that, since this was not a clean build attempt, please clean and try again and attach the new complete main.log if it fails again.

sudo port clean eggdbus

I first did this:

% sudo port clean eggdbus

and then:

If possible, I'd recommend simply disabling building documentation unless explicitly requested. This is the same sort of crash we routinely encounter from meinproc4 when building KDE's documentation.

Another work around is to enable building as root.

[renz@…]

I tried this as root. Everything stays the same. How do I disable document building?

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Works for me. Attach the crash log please.

BTW, you might want to change portarchivetype to tbz2 in macports.conf so you can use prebuilt binaries.

[renz@…]

portarchivetype is now changed to tbz2. main.log is updated. Please see Segmentation fault in the log.

[renz@…]

The log after cleaning.

[renz@…]

sudo port clean eggdbus did not do the job, but sudo port clean --all eggdbus made it clean enough to avoid the Segmentation fault!!! Thanks guys.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The crash log is different to main.log, but anyway, closing as per comment:7.
