Thanks for the ticket. In the future, please try to Cc relevant port maintainers.

[ballen4705]

Apologies, I'm not very familiar with the macports project. Is there anything I should do not, or just wait for questions/comments/solutions from the maintainers?

[larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)]

You could send a message to the macports-dev mailing list; someone there might be able to give you a hand.

Cc Me!

The port is abandoned #45338 and unmaintained r126927.

[petrrr]

The port was updated in r126965 to 2.1.0. The new version now used cython and has changes significantly. I therefore would expect that the update solve this ticket.

Build ​30612 seems to confirm the above assumption. Closing!
