denyhosts-2.6 fails to build -- unknown variable 'python.bin'

Description
When trying to build security/denyhosts, I get the following error message:
---> Building denyhosts Error: Target org.macports.build returned: can't read "python.bin": no such variable Warning: the following items did not execute (for denyhosts): org.macports.activate org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
The MacPorts guide says this variable is supposed to be defined for ports with PortGroup python/python2x; could the problem here be that the PortGroup is only set by the variant?

This seems to work now, so I think the ticket can be closed.

How did you get it to work? It's still failing for me with the same error:
bash-3.2# port clean denyhosts ---> Cleaning denyhosts bash-3.2# port install denyhosts +python26 ---> Computing dependencies for denyhosts ---> Building denyhosts Error: Target org.macports.build returned: can't read "python.bin": no such variable Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
Do you have any suggestions?

FYI. I just got python26 +universal to install after building zlib with +universal and removing the Import Nav from the python makefile. This is also running on a MacBookPro (4,1) with Snow Leopard and 64-bit extensions enabled.

The problem cited in this ticket doesn't occur any longer for the reporter or myself.
Marking worksforme.
heh, this is certainly one of the more egregious abuses of the PortGroup functionality
