Restoring from a backup is a terrible solution. I make nightly

Likewise losing all the emails in an imap mailbox would make me
equally unpopular. I think for me it's best to just move user data
outside /opt/local. I already moved it all to a subdir of /opt/
local/var I should have just moved it outside /opt/local altogether
and I wouldn't be worried about find $prefix -exec rm commands.
If it's all in $prefix/var, just run a find command for bin, etc,
include, lib, and share.
Good idea.
I couldn't manage to get find -path '/opt/local/var' -prune to work
but ! seems to work.
sudo find /opt/local \( ! -path "/opt/local/var/*" -a ! -path "/opt/
local/apache2/*" -a ! -path "/opt/local/www/*" \) -name *.mp_*
I think these are two other directories that some of the ports may
park user files like some of the web frameworks that allow user uploads.
