base 1.7.0 Ruby port group seems broken: "can't read "file": no such variable"

Description

A large number of ruby port are broken when you try to install from trunk installation. This is the error message.

Error: Target org.macports.destroot returned: can't read "file": no such variable
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

I thought it might have been the "type" of installation passed to the command ruby.setup, which is provided by ruby port group. A check against the existing set ruby ports does not confirm this theory.

Here a list of a manual bulk check I did just now. An "X" in the first column means the above mentioned error occured. (X* means some other error prevented successful install.)

Picking an arbitrary couple of ports from the list, rb-acl and rb-bdb work for me.

Resolution: invalid
Status: newclosed

I reset my installation and now I don't get this error any longer either. So I guess it was an intermittent problem or just confusion on my side. Sorry for the noise, I close it.

Possibly your trunk sources were not initially up to date, and you didn't have r36656.
