Although a more permanent fix for this is likely coming along eventually, for now the only practical and functional solution to this is to rebuild macports from source referencing a newer version of curl.
There are a number of posts here on trac detailing the step-by-step instructions how to do that. One of the them is here <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51516#comment:19>.
I've done it on every machine I have < 10.8. It works great at present, and solves the problem comprehensively. It comes with no warranty, though.
Although you could install curl into
/opt/local
and self-reference it when rebuilding macports, I would suggest (and described how to) install a parallel version of macports into/opt/bootstrap
, and use a curl installation in there to upgrade macports installed into/opt/local
-- just in case one day, in a fit of confusion, yousudo port deactivate
everything, and blow up your macports install.If this all seems a bit of a hassle, yeah - you're right - but hey, it's a 10+ year old machine and it's still usable after all these years, so what's a 10 minute fix in that context?
