Dear Alison,
    Thank you very much for the response. Sorry for the earlier email not
being detailed. I will try to explain everything in detail this time.
As you suggested, I uninstalled macports and then  XQuartz (Essentially I
googled how to do it and followed the steps they said)

sudo rm -rf \
    /opt/local \
    /Applications/DarwinPorts \
    /Applications/MacPorts \
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.* \
    /Library/Receipts/DarwinPorts*.pkg \
    /Library/Receipts/MacPorts*.pkg \
    /Library/StartupItems/DarwinPortsStartup \
    /Library/Tcl/darwinports1.0 \
    /Library/Tcl/macports1.0 \
    ~/.macports

after this I reinstalled macports by double clicking my earlier
downloaded file. After that I
reinstalled xorg by typing the sudo port install xorg-server
demeter-devel command. this time it took too

long to install. Essentially I could see individual things getting
checked downloaded and cleaned

etc. but the error message occured towards the end
-->  Attempting to fetch

Error: org.macports.archivefetch for port libgcc returned: Failed to fetch
signature for archive: Connection timed out after 30023 milliseconds

Error: Failed to install libgcc

Please see the log file for port libgcc for details:

The log file is attached to this email. neverthless I still logged out
by typing logout in terminal

(if thats what it means) and clicked terminal again. this time I
checked the $DISPLAY command and it

showed the following message.

Last login: Mon Sep  1 23:18:41 on ttys000

Pushkar-Shejwalkars-MacBook:~ Pushkar$ echo $DISPLAY

/tmp/launch-WZNfFS/org.macosforge.xquartz:0

after this I typed
sudo port install athena

and error read as
Error: Port athena not found

Pushkar-Shejwalkars-MacBook:~ Pushkar$ athena

-bash: athena: command not found

Pushkar-Shejwalkars-MacBook:~ Pushkar$ sudo port install athena

Error: Port athena not found

Pushkar-Shejwalkars-MacBook:~ Pushkar$

Please tell me what did I do wrong? I am sure I am missing something
here very important step.

Thanks a lot for your help. Hope to hear back with some possible suggestions.

Best

Pushkar
