Description
There's a workaround at the bottom of this description.
I'm running on Mac OS 10.6.8 on an Intel Mac. XCode 3.2.6. MacPorts 2.3.2.
Sandy$ gcc --version i686-apple-darwin10-gcc-4.2.1 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3) ...

The *.sty files in the source directory are identical to the ones in the destination directory.
If I delete the file in the destination directory and rerun the update, same error.
If I delete the file in the source directory, error on the next file in the list.
If I delete all files in the source directory, error: no files match the *.sty glob pattern.
In other words, running port once copies these files into the destination directory, then tries to copy them again (at least in my situation).
There is a recent change, https://trac.macports.org/changeset/126928 , which seems to be responsible for the extra copy. (Obviously the files were not being copied in some circumstances before. ) It adds some lines to the file
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/print/latex2html/Portfile
Workaround
Once you've tried to build (or install or upgrade) the port, the Portfile should be in the above location. Edit the file and change this line:
file copy ${file} ${texmfdir}
to this
file copy -force ${file} ${texmfdir}
and then re-run the install / build / upgrade.
(That really is a single dash in front of the word force, Portfiles use embedded TCL commands.)
