Could you please attach the output of the following command?

In bc9bfca6eb00b440e796bc02563b7a130a771d80/macports-base (master):

create_workpath: rework to handle more cases

This may previously have not handled some paths created by older
base versions correctly.

Closes: #72740

It's hard to be certain without a reproduction recipe that this change fixed the specific issue in this ticket, but it should at least be handling some cases correctly that it didn't before.

Thanks, that confirms that there was an older build directory with a different naming convention, which wasn't handled correctly. Does the problem go away after updating to MacPorts 2.11.4?

[mrkapqa]

yes , problem is solved; installing now, thanks very much.

Great, thanks for confirming.
