wgrib2 fails to install due to missing path in depspec — at Version 2

Description (last modified by Manish22332 (Manish))

I was trying to install grads via MacPorts but it's throwing me this error. I have tried all the steps in the troubleshooting steps mentioned on the website but none works. I have installed that package previously via brew but it's not not working either.

This is the port: https://ports.macports.org/port/grads/

The depspec path:gnutar:gnutar is not valid because the middle component needs to be a path. Base should probably give a better error in this case, but regardless, the port should most likely be using a port: or bin: depspec anyway (depending on whether the system gnutar is acceptable). If there were multiple ports that could provide the gnutar executable, then the appropriate depspec would be path:bin/gnutar:gnutar.
