Incomplete error message: "Dependency not found"

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

There is a problem with the display of an error message:

indi $ sudo port install  -- -universal
Password:
Warning: No port libnova found in the index.
--->  Computing dependencies for indi
--->  Fetching archive for indi
--->  Attempting to fetch indi-0.8_1.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2 from http://packages.macports.org/indi
--->  Installing indi @0.8_1
Error: Dependency  not found
--->  Activating indi @0.8_1
--->  Cleaning indi

The problem is not that libnova was not found in the index. libnova was installed. It was a local issue with my ports tree that had already been resolved, I just hadn't rerun portindex.

The problem is that, although the first message (the warning) correctly names libnova ("No port libnova found in the index"), the second message (the error) has the problem dependency name blank ("Dependency not found").

The second problem is that I don't think the "Error" line should be displayed at all.
