Just out of curiosity, I tried:

So, how we fix all that?

It seems that there was a problem when I sent this ticket.. Anyway I have fixed forcing the uninstall of py27-nose, reinstalling it, and finally uninstalling the inactive ports..

Ciao,

Angelo.

I just had this issue with py27-hgsvn, and resolved it in the same manner Angelo did. It would be really nice if instead of just dumping the errors

Error: py27-distribute is obsolete, please install py27-setuptools instead

and then

Error: org.macports.uninstall for port py27-distribute returned: Please uninstall the ports that depend on py27-distribute first.

MacPorts could explain that the actual solution is to reinstall the relevant ports, or better yet, handle the issue itself.

I checked info of py27-nose and did not show any library dependency to py27-distribute. So, I decided to forced uninstall of py27-distribute and py26-distribute, then uninstall inactive. Hope did not broke the dependency tree.
