Hello,

I am a newbie to the Mac. I am trying to use the MacPorts system, version 1.5. I saw another post to this list stating that /opt/local/bin/portslocation has never existed. It does not exist on my system.

I'm trying to install the gaim port. The instructions on http://gaim.darwinports.com/ say to cd to the aforementioned directory. The date on that page is July 18, 2007.

I try "port install gaim", ignoring the directory for the moment, and the port system cannot find it. If I do a Google search for /opt/local/bin/portslocation, I get 27,800 hits. At least for the first several pages, it's all Mac related.

Should portslocation exist or not. If not, is there some additional configuration I need to do for MacPorts for it to be able to find gaim.

Thanks,
