Dear all:
First of all let me say hello to all members of this forum.
I have been a beginner sporadic user of Inkscape for some months and working with previous issues without problem. Now I tried to install the new version of Inkscape with my new version of SW and surprise, surprise: It is impossible to install it.
I attempted to install inkscape 092.2 using Macports.
I have xcocde and MacPorts 2.4.2-10.12 Sierra (My Version macOs Sierra is 10.12.6) installed on my computer.
I triggered the installation by using command “sudo port install inkscape” on the Terminal.
The installation process develops smoothly but fails at the end with the error message below.
Could somebody help me on how to proceed on this?
I have to state that my knowledge of computing is highly limited so if you could guide me in a dummy friendly way that would help me in a lot.

installing this port in order for it to work.

p5.24-libwww-perl has the following notes:
As of version 6.00, libwww-perl has been split into multiple packages. If
you were using p5.24-libwww-perl for just one or two of its modules before,
you may be able to pare down your installation to just those modules now.
Other important changes have been made that may affect your code; for
details, please see: /opt/local/share/doc/p5.24-libwww-perl/Changes
py27-cython has the following notes:
To make the Python 2.7 version of Cython the one that is run when you
execute the commands without a version suffix, e.g. 'cython', run:
port select --set cython cython27
python27 has the following notes:
To make this the default Python or Python 2 (i.e., the version run by the
'python' or 'python2' commands), run one or both of:
sudo port select --set python python27
sudo port select --set python2 python27
