I'm having the same issues as Michael Hernandez. Here's what I get following your suggestion:

Do I read correctly, all the "Requested variant....not found" indicates something wrong with the modules themselves?
No, that does not indicate any problem. MacPorts automatically looks for variants of certain names in all ports. Most ports do not provide these variants, and MacPorts, in debug mode, prints a message about that. It's not an error. It's just informative.
I have tried individually installing each of the missing dependencies, but no joy there either:
Macintosh:~ walts$ sudo port install gettext ---> Building gettext with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel _gettext/work/gettext-0.17" && make all " returned error 1 Command output: sh: line 0: cd: /opt/local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel _gettext/work/gettext-0.17: No such file or directory
[snip] So all your problems at this point stem from gettext 0.17 not installing. I'm the maintainer of gettext, but I've never seen this error before. I can't imagine why the gettext work directory wouldn't exist. Please clean and try again. sudo port clean --work gettext sudo port install gettext Let us know if you get the same (or different) errors then.
