 I used the MacPorts-1.9.1.pkg on my Macbook Pro running OSX 10.6.4
 XCode version 3.2.3 (4.0 SDK)

 I get the same error when I try to install another package.

 In my search I found defect 322 which was closed 7 years ago as being
 invalid.

 I have tried to add a URL to my /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf as
 specified by: http://www.rabbitmq.com/macports.html

 I did this in a visual text editor, and it is possible I introduced non-
 visible characters in doing so. I have since removed the line, and
 reinstalled macports, but that file may not be re-ritten in an install?
