You didn't show the relevant lines from the main.log file. Please attach the main.log file.

what a strange warning:

ld: warning: ignoring file '/opt/lib/ncurses/libncurses.5.dylib': found architecture 'x86_64', required architecture 'arm64'

1. what do you have installed in /opt/lib ?
2. why would macports even look in that location for libraries?

Is this a new install of Sonoma, or did you upgrade from something older? DId you restore from a Time Machine backup? Make some unusual symlinks?

Your log shows a number of build attempts. For a start, you might sort out what you have in /opt/lib and perhaps get rid of that, then clean once and send up a fresh log if it fails again:

sudo port clean cmake-bootstrap
sudo port -v install cmake-bootstrap

Thanks for the assistance. Removing an old installation of go from /opt/lib resolved the compiling issue.

great!
