 There is a problem with the display of an error message:

 {{{
 indi $ sudo port install  -- -universal
 Password:
 Warning: No port libnova found in the index.
 --->  Computing dependencies for indi
 --->  Fetching archive for indi
 --->  Attempting to fetch indi-0.8_1.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2 from
 http://packages.macports.org/indi
 --->  Installing indi @0.8_1
 Error: Dependency  not found
 --->  Activating indi @0.8_1
 --->  Cleaning indi
 }}}

 The problem is not that libnova was not found in the index. libnova was
 installed. It was a local issue with my ports tree that had already been
 resolved, I just hadn't rerun portindex.

 The problem is that, although the first message (the warning) correctly
 names libnova ("`No port libnova found in the index`"), the second message
 (the error) has the problem dependency name blank ("`Dependency  not
 found`").
