I know there was a problem in the past with the packaging of TeX. When two packages install files with the same name and packages are made after installing both, at least one of the packages will contain the incorrect files. To do it properly, you would have to build, install, package and remove each port separately instead of building all, then packaging all. I don't know if the package building for the releases was fixed in this respect....if not, I'll bet that is the problem. -john
