The rsync repo gets sluggish around 4-5am PDT every day due to server backups and maintenance. I'm actually going to try spreading out some of the load throughout the day to help... But right now, you can expect the selfupdate and syncs to take up to 10m. Normally on average they take 1-3m for me during the day. I was thinking that the progress bar on the installer could be changed or some rsync verbose output added to make it not seem like a hang, but the performance is also an issue, and I am working on it.

I am running OS X 10.5.2 on an iMacG5 pentium machine. I just downloaded MacPorts-1.6.0.pkg and tried to install it several times, but it always hangs up with the progress indicator about 3/4 of the way through, and never finishes.
The Installer.app provides a log (Window -> Installer Log), what does it say there?
I downloaded the MacPorts-1.6.0.pkg again, and this time it installed after several minutes.
After the installer finished I tried :
$ sudo port -v selfupdate Password: Synchronizing local ports tree from rsync://rsync.macports.org/ release/ ports/
but here the terminal hangs up. (it hasn't done anything for about 10 minutes)
Does your network allow traffic on the rsync port?
