{{{ :debug:activate Using /usr/bin/bzip2 :info:activate sh: /usr/bin/tar: Bad CPU type in executable }}} Uhm.
What is the output of {{{ $ file /usr/bin/{,bsd}tar }}}
{{{ /usr/bin/tar: Mach-O executable ppc /usr/bin/bsdtar: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64 }}}
OK, I'm not sure how you managed to have a ppc-only version of `tar` on Mountain Lion, as the normal Mountain Lion `tar` is supposed to be x86_64. Make sure you have all the latest system updates and stuff installed, and once you've done this, if you're still running into this problem, try reinstalling your system from scratch. In any case, this isn't a MacPorts problem, it's a problem with your OS being hosed. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38594#comment:10> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
