failure in py26-matplotlib-basemap @1.0_0 ; does not install dbflib

[jpringle@…]

I upgrade macports with self update, and then update all packages. py26-matplotlib and py26-matplotlib-basemap were updated to version one. The command

import mpl_toolkits.basemap

Then failed with "ImportError: No module named dbflib" at

/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/mpl_toolkits/basemap/init.py in <module>()

36 from matplotlib.lines import Line2D 37 from matplotlib.transforms import Bbox

---> 38 import pyproj, sys, os, math, dbflib

39 from proj import Proj 40 import numpy as np

I tried uninstalling and then installing basemap again, and it did not help. I think dbflib is supposed to be part of basemap; it was part of the py26-matplotlib-basemap package as of version 0.99.4_0

I appreciate any help you can offer.
