When I'm trying to make the install, I get the following errors :

Just guessing, but this looks like a problem with your setup. It seems to use the correct libraries in /opt/local (although it doesn't look like building anything here). But somehow they do not seem to fit either your Python or the compiler, so apparently it can't build against them. Is this on Intel or PPC?
Maybe others can comment on this?
IIRC, macports builds binaries for your system, not universal binaries. /usr/bin/python, on the other hand, is a universal binary. See if the library ports have a universal variant, and if so, try installing that. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.
