I built various ports using MPI in testing before committing this though, so I am confused why it worked for me without that part added in 'global' -- anyone have a thought on that? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49669#comment:11> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

My issue is identical to the OP. I see you guys have promptly released a patch to fix it fast. However being a novice, I am having trouble using the patch fix the issue. I have read the "how to" section and the 4.5 in the Macport guide. But unfortunately none of them speak about this scenario! Both those resources about fixing a specific port. Since this is not a port that is damaged here, could someone tell me how would I go about using the patch to fix the issue.

Thank you. I realize my folly now. I was trying to upgrade the ports without updating the port tree once again after encountering the error. Looks like its all fixed now.
