-it indicates that the script has a list of ports to install, and it can't figure out which of the ports to install next. Each port has some obstacle that prevents it from being the next to install. One cause of this problem is a "dependency cycle": port A depends directly or indirectly on port B, while port B depends on port A.  A workaround is to reduce your list of ports to install, until it no longer has a dependency cycle. Note that if you still need additional help debugging a dependency cycle like this, there is a pull request against this script that may improve things: https://github.com/macports/macports-contrib/pull/10

 If things go really wrong, don't forget that you can always [https://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html uninstall MacPorts] entirely before manually reinstalling ports.
