You have upgraded to Yosemite and found this error while trying to upgrade macports via command line?
fmbp:~ root# port -v selfupdate
Error: Current platform "darwin 14" does not match expected platform "darwin 13"
Error: If you upgraded your OS, please follow the migration instructions: https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration
OS platform mismatch
while executing
"mportinit ui_options global_options global_variations"
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: Failed to initialize MacPorts, OS platform mismatch
The error is explaining very well what is happening and the recommendation is to visit the Migration website for further instructions.
My recommendation (and tested of course) is to just download the latest macports, the Yosemite version and install it.
However,
as normal, after the macports installation you have to upgrade the packages and sometimes you can get compile errors. If this is the case for you, follow the migration instructions. In short, you have to do the following:fmbp:~ root# port -qv installed > myports.txt
fmbp:~ root# port echo requested | cut -d ' ' -f 1 > requested.txt
fmbp:~ root# port -f uninstall installed
fmbp:~ root# port selfupdate
fmbp:~ root# port clean all
fmbp:~ root# curl -O https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/contrib/restore_ports/restore_ports.tcl
fmbp:~ root# chmod +x restore_ports.tcl
fmbp:~ root# ./restore_ports.tcl myports.txt
