Please run sudo port clean --all intltool and try again, and if it still fails, attach the main.log mentioned in the error message.

Replying to cal@…:

Did that; it didn't work, as I expected. See log.

Seems to be a problem with your local proxy solution.

MacPorts should just try the next server or attempt a build from source, though. It might be quicker to get your local admin to relax the restrictions a little, because the denied file is actually just 512 bytes of random junk (which happen to form an OpenSSL signature) and not dangerous at all, and fixing this in MacPorts will at least take until the next release.

Resolution: → worksforme
Status: new → closed

Since the primary culprit seems to be the local proxy, I believe this can be closed.
port -s might also be a workaround since it forces a build from source.
Please feel free to reopen if I am missing something.
