Python26 Error

[rpn@…]

Hi

I'm trying to port rdiff-backup. one of the dependencies is python26 and it's failing with the following error. the log is also not very helpful.

sudo port install rdiff-backup ---> Computing dependencies for rdiff-backup ---> Dependencies to be installed: py26-xattr python26 ---> Extracting python26 Error: org.macports.extract for port python26 returned: Failed to locate 'xz' in path: '/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin' or at its MacPorts configuration time location, did you move it? Error: Failed to install python26 Please see the log file for port python26 for details:

(I have successfully installed a number of other packages, this is the only dependency that seems to fail).
