Fresh install of MacPorts

[neverpanic (Clemens Lang)]

Please use WikiFormatting and preview your post when posting in Trac. What is the system actually doing at the point where it hangs? Can you check which process hangs, e.g. using htop or Activity Monitor? Maybe this is a duplicate of #45684? Can you try repairing disk permissions?

Note that configure has successfully found the location of sdl-config; it's the next check that's apparently the problem, which is the SDL version check. Let me know if r127930 helps.

Thank you. r127930 solved the issue

I uninstalled MacPorts and did a clean install and the error didn't appear. I guess this only happens when you update MacPorts after an OS X update instead of installing a clean MacPorts environment.
