I don't see an actual error here. Please attach the complete debug output.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The debug output mentions the file /usr/local/lib/libgmp.a. Please remove this file and anything else in /usr/local prior to attempting to use MacPorts. Then clean gcc44 and try building again.

I don't think that is a good solution as my /usr/local has allot of stuff in it that I use all the time. I managed to install gcc44 via a different way and not through MacPorts. Thanks. If someone has a different solution I would be glad to hear it.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

All you have to do is move it temporarily:

sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local.moved
sudo port clean gcc44
sudo port insall gcc44
sudo mv /usr/local.moved /usr/local

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

But you have to do that every time you install anything with MacPorts, to ensure that what you're installing doesn't inadvertently use things from /usr/local. We cannot support having anything in /usr/local while using MacPorts, sorry.
