Following advice, I moved /opt/local aside and I have since been
having horrible problems.
I use latex and gv a lot.
It turned out that latex was in the old /opt/local (now /opt/
local.old) and I wasn't sure how to access it. I copied /opt/
local.old/bin/{selected items that seemed to belong to tex} to the
new /opt/local/bin. That seems to work, but will probably go wrong
when other files from the tex hierarchy are needed.
Then I tried sudo port install gv and got the following response:
