Please note: ​https://docs.python.org/3/installing/index.html Quote: "... Python only started bundling pip with Python 3.4. For earlier versions, pip needs to be “bootstrapped” as described in the Python Packaging User Guide. ..."

My current purpose is to install necpp:

pip install necpp

Remember to use WikiFormatting when writing in Trac. I've fixed your formatting above.

There are two different errors shown in your log, from two different installation attempts (delimited by version:1). Neither of the problems seem like bugs in the port.

Your first error:

Replying to glenndk:

:error:activate Failed to activate py35-setuptools: Image error: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin/easy_install already exists and does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port py35-setuptools. Use 'port -f activate py35-setuptools' to force the activation.

Only you can tell us why this file already exists on your computer in a location where MacPorts expects to be the only one installing files. You can try forcing the activation as suggested in the error message, but I can't guarantee that you won't run into the same problem with a different port later on. I am not familiar with pip; perhaps it is possible that using pip would install files into the MacPorts prefix; if so you should not use pip in that manner. Make sure that from now on you do not cause files to be installed into the MacPorts prefix except by using MacPorts.

Your second error:

:error:install Failed to install py35-setuptools: no destroot found at: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_python_py-setuptools/py35-setuptools/work/destroot

This is #55445 a.k.a. wiki:ProblemHotlist#nodestrootfound.

I have even run diskutil and restarted the computer. That did not help either.

Thanks for your help. You can close the ticket.

I found out how to delete stubborn directories/files.

Booted in another volume:

sudo rm -rf /Volume/problemvolume/opt/local/var

Hmm. I thought that would only happen on Catalina. Per the ​the uninstallation instructions:

"If you are running macOS 10.15 Catalina or later and have not disabled System Integrity Protection (SIP), you will need to ​remove the macports user first."
