In the meantime, this is the workaround I used

{{{ port installed > myports.txt cat myports.txt | xargs sudo port -fp uninstall }}}

Which is exactly equivalent to `sudo port -fp uninstall installed`; i.e. the only difference is not using --follow-dependents. Maybe there was a dependency loop in your registry? Since 2.0.2, ports will be uninstalled in dependency order anyway, so I've removed --follow-dependents from the instructions. That's probably all that can be done without a reproducible test case. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31695#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
