aspell not installed properly on Mac Tahoe

Used port to install aspell and english dictionary. Both installs proceeded without error, but aspell won't run due to missing library:

It looks like you are not running the MacPorts version of aspell, but rather another version installed in /usr/local/bin (since that is earlier in your PATH than /opt/local/bin). port contents aspell will show you where MacPorts installed the files for this port.
