I'm trying to apply the latest Yosemite security update, but the above
message comes up.

I tried to install MacPorts at the weekend, but it hung and couldn't be
cancelled so I force quited the process. The above message later claims
that MacPorts is still being installed.

How can I kill the hung install or do I have to resort to a hard reboot?

Nevermind. I went for the hard reboot option and that unwedged it.
