The following problem occurs with both the old version and 1.4 rc2:

prunille:~> sudo port -v uninstall m4 @1.4.8b_1

Error: port uninstall failed: Registry error: m4 1.4.8b_1 not registered as installed.

prunille:~> sudo port -v upgrade m4

--->  Activating m4 1.4.8b_1+with_default_names

Error: Activating m4 1.4.8b_1 failed: Image error: Another version of m4 (1.4.4_0) is already active.

Some additional information:

prunille:~> port installed m4

The following ports are currently installed:

  m4 @1.4.4_0 (active)

  m4 @1.4.8b_1+with_default_names

So, the two questions are:

1. Why doesn't upgrade deactivate m4 1.4.4_0 first?

2. Why does uninstall say that m4 1.4.8b_1 is not registered as

   installed while "port installed m4" says it is installed?
