Running a general selfupdate + upgrade outdated crashed on updating xemacs. log file attached. Note that though I have macports 2.6.3 installed, the logfile mentions 2.6.2 at the beginning. Is it a problem ? No idea. I tried to clean and re-upgrade, without success

Please check for existing tickets before filing a new one. This is a duplicate of #59502 which gives you a simple work-around.

I did check for existing tickets, but it was not obvious that I was concerned with #59502 since #59502 was about @21.4.22_15+sumo which is the one currently installed on my machine for which I had no trouble to upgrade at the time it was upgraded. How was I supposed to know it would be the same problem ? On top of that, I have done a number of upgrades since that ticket was deposited without problems, therefore I really did not feel concerned with that "old" ticket, sorry for that.

Your log contains seven build attempts at various dates dating back to February of this year, at which time you had MacPorts 2.6.2 installed. Later attempts in your log show version 2.6.3. MacPorts does not delete the logfile until you either clean the port or install it successfully.

The error reported in that ticket was Malformed UTF-8 character: \xe4\x2c\x20. That is the same error that appears in your log. I realize it's not always easy to determine which lines in the log are the relevant ones. I usually search for "error:" (ignoring errors about missing packages) or "Waiting for unfinished jobs" to get to the right general area of the logfile. David is right that we would rather you not file duplicate tickets if possible, but if you can't determine if your issue is a duplicate, then we would still rather you file the ticket, so thank you for reporting it and reminding us of the problem.
