What could I do here?
I suggest you do precisely what MacPorts is asking your to do, and uninstall the ports that it says. You could also use the `-f` flag for the `port` command to force it to uninstall and ignore the dependency. By the way, the "cannot stat file" is a problem I occasionally see when there is minor filesystem corruption. I suggest you boot to your recovery partition and "repair" your disk before you proceed. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37143#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
