Great! You got MacPorts 1.4.2.
$ sudo port -f clean --all all ---> Cleaning ngrep nhc98 is not supported on OS X i386 yet
I'm new to this port system and may be missing something.
Why do you want to clean *all* ports? Is there a specific problem you're trying to solve by running that command? The target "all" means all ports that exist, not just those installed on your system. So "all" includes nhc98, which prints the message you saw, and also exits, when it's invoked on an Intel Mac. Perhaps you meant to clean only the *installed* ports. But I'm still not clear why. I think MacPorts automatically cleans each port after it's installed, so you really shouldn't need to clean the installed ports.
