Out of curiosity, why do you want to install the MacPorts port?

`Command output: configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub' shows up in every port that I'm trying to install, I just though reinstalling MacPorts might help.

Oh, I didn't realize that. Well that certainly shouldn't be. Reinstalling MacPorts might help. But I don't think installing the port called MacPorts is the way to do that. At least, that's not documented anywhere.
