    11I think -- looking at your logs -- a lot of your trouble is that many things are trying to build {{{+universal}}} on your BigSur M1 system.

    3 I have in fact fixed a lot of ports to build +universal on a BigSur arm64 system, but not all of them. And some of them I fixed, but the fixes are not quite "perfect" in some way, so they are not accepted. So they therefore stay broken until someone else comes up with a perfect fix, if they ever do.

    5 Building +universal on BigSur arm64 should be easy, and one day it probably will be, but right now it is not 100% easy.

    16 And -- if it was me and I needed some super duper software package "Right Now" on my M1 Apple system... I would just install a parallel second MacPorts in {{{/opt/Intel}}} on my M1 Mac and set the {{{build_arch}}} to {{{x86_64}}}.

    18 But that is beyond the scope of what I'm prepared to deal with in this ticket. Perhaps someone else will write up a Wiki page for you about how that it done.
