When I have questions like these, I find the codesearch tool helpful: http://code.google.com/p/codesearch/ Using it, I can easily search all portfiles in less than a second: $ csearch -f Portfile setup.py.*prefix | less /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/audio/sphinx3/Portfile: system "cd ${worksrcpath}/python && ${python.bin} setup.py --no-user-cfg install --prefix=${python.prefix} --root=${destroot}" /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/audio/sphinxtrain/Portfile: system "cd ${worksrcpath}/python && ${python.bin} setup.py --no-user-cfg install --prefix=${python.prefix} --root=${destroot}" /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/graphics/vtk5/Portfile: system "cd ${worksrcpath}/Wrapping/Python && ${prefix}/bin/python${v} setup.py install --prefix=${frameworks_dir}/Python.framework/Versions/${v} --root=${destroot}" /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/science/pymol/Portfile: file copy ${worksrcpath}/setup/pymol_macports ${destroot}${prefix}/bin/pymol /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/science/pymol-devel/Portfile: file copy ${worksrcpath}/setup/pymol_macports ${destroot}${prefix}/bin/pymol By the way, the portfiles were indexed with the command: $ cindex /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports To answer your question, it would seem that you need to set --prefix={$python.prefix} and --root=${destroot} _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
