Dear Alison/ and All,
        As you suggested I tried to install the demeter and xorg
separately. As you expected the xorg installation went very well and was
complete. However, when i tried to install demeter-devel it did not go well
and I had following error.
 Attempting to fetch 1.2.final.tar.gz from
http://cjj.kr.distfiles.macports.org/ifeffit
--->  Verifying checksums for
p5.16-ifeffit
--->  Extracting p5.16-ifeffit
--->  Configuring p5.16-ifeffit
--->  Building p5.16-ifeffit
Error: org.macports.build for port p5.16-ifeffit returned: command
execution failed
Error: Failed to install p5.16-ifeffit

Then there was log file which is attached to this email including other
steps i did. and then following error again.

To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port demeter-devel failed

So as you expected there was a problem installing demeter-devel.
any help in this aspect will be highly appreciated. I am not sure if this
is a bug and can be fixed easily? shoudl I just try once more? I am afraid
that i would mess up again by multiple installation.
Thank you very much for help and pursuing this prooblem to be solved.

Sincerely
Pushkar
