When trying to install (osx 10.6.8) , I get:

This was not a clean build attempt. Run sudo port clean gobject-introspection and try installing again. If it still fails, attach the new main.log.

I had an issue with gobject-introspection back on my old computer that ran 10.6.8 (issue #37137 for reference), and it turned out to actually be an issue with my glib2 installation instead. What does port installed glib2 report for you?

I had already checked it, it seems ok

port installed glib2

The following ports are currently installed:
  glib2 @2.34.3_0+universal (active)

There are a number of strange things in the log you attached, but I'll refrain from analyzing them until you provide a log from a clean build, as requested above.

I requested it in comment 1. I could tell that it was not a clean build attempt because all the phases up until the build phase were skipped. Please run the following and attach the new main.log if it fails.

sudo port clean gobject-introspection
sudo port install gobject-introspection

This is still not a clean build. If it were, the archive, fetch, checksum, extract, patch, and configure phases would not be skipped.

As previously instructed, you must run these two commands, in this order.

sudo port clean gobject-introspection
sudo port install gobject-introspection +universal

This happened to me, and I fixed it by noticing that my macports.config file had ppc instead of x86_64 set for my architecture. see ​http://superuser.com/questions/176561/mac-ports-installation-of-gcc46-failing-due-to-architecture-problems I followed the migration instructions to reinstall everything with x86_64 and gobject-introspection installed fine.

here it is ( see main.5.log)

It says the problem is:

:info:build ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libgobject-2.0.dylib, missing required architecture x86_64 in file
:info:build ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libgthread-2.0.dylib, missing required architecture x86_64 in file
:info:build ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libffi.dylib, missing required architecture x86_64 in file
:info:build ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libglib-2.0.dylib, missing required architecture x86_64 in file
:info:build ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libintl.dylib, missing required architecture x86_64 in file
:info:build ld: warning: in /opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib, missing required architecture x86_64 in file

For some reason, on your system, the ports glib2, libffi, gettext and libintl are missing the x86_64 portion, which should be there.

I think shlaer was probably right: you probably have build_arch set to either ppc or i386, and/or you have universal_archs set to ppc i386 in macports.conf. These values would have been appropriate for Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5, but when you upgraded to Mac OS X 10.6 you needed to have changed build_arch to x86_64 and universal_archs to x86_64 i386, or commented them out to use the MacPorts default value. More generally, you needed to have followed the instructions in wiki:Migration; one of the steps is manually updating your macports.conf file.
