Description

I couldn't install py27-wxpython on my G5 because it kept giving me the following error:

DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/python/py27-wxpython

To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

I made the following changes to the Portfile:

#configure.build_arch   i386
supported_archs i386 ppc

Basically, I did a port edit of py27-wxpython and commented out the build arch for i386 and added the line "supported_archs i386 ppc" without the quotes, saved my edit and then ran the command to install the port. Then I was able to finally have a successful install.

My command line steps:

sudo port edit py27-wxpython
sudo port install py27-wxpython

I have included the changed Portfile with revisions. I hope I did this correctly.

Please see the ticket guidelines regarding selecting an appropriate ticket type. A unified diff would be preferable rather than attaching the complete modified file, but in this case the change is so simple you don't really need to supply one.
