Unable to compile libical

[jord.swart@…]

I'm trying to install Amarok-devel and run into a problem with libical (not sure why I need it, but that is another topic). Port gives me the following error:

Warning: the following items did not execute (for libical): org.macports.activate org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Seems that the issue is because of 10.6.1; it used to work with 10.5.8.

Since I got no reply I tried the old trick: remove everything and start all over. This time however I started with libical. And that did the trick. It compiled and installed. You can close the case.
