Can't install python27

[gsjonesjr@…]

Hi, I upgraded to Mavericks and can no longer use JavaHL. I tried sudo port install subversion-javahlbindings +no_bdb +universal but that kept having problems so I followed the instructions on ​https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration. When trying to install JavaHL I now have problems with a dependency on python27. So I downloaded the Portfile for Java27 and tried to install it and am getting the same error that I got when trying to install JavaHL - namely that the destroot is missing. Here's what I ran: $ sudo port install python27 +universal ---> Computing dependencies for python27 ---> Installing python27 @2.7.6_0+universal Error: org.macports.install for port python27 returned: no destroot found at: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_python27/python27/work/destroot Please see the log file for port python27 for details:

/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_python27/python27/main.log

To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:

Error: Processing of port python27 failed

"no destroot found" can virtually always be resolved by cleaning the port first: sudo port clean python27. In fact, that's the first thing you should always try when a build fails: wiki:FAQ#buildfails.

I did that and got:

sudo port -f clean pthon27

Error: Port pthon27 not found

Replying to gsjonesjr@…:

I did that and got:

sudo port -f clean pthon27

Error: Port pthon27 not found

You forgot the “y” in “python27”. Also don’t use -f.
