zlib destroot failure

[brenna.switzer@…]

I am new to macports, so forgive me if this question is simplistic. I am attempting to install MAMP on my Mac (Snow Leopard 10.6.3) using macports (XCode 3.2.2) and am getting the same error for install on apache2, mysql5 and php5. It's probably quite simple, but I am stumped.

I did have mysql previously installed but I deleted it. I also had apache2 and php5 running through Mac's native install, but I have disabled it.

Here is the error (using the -d flag):
