hi,
i have just installed macport in a fresh OS X 10.3.9 server
installation using the 1.6 package installer.
After the installation i have noticed that no .profile has been
installed.
on the manual it reads:
MacPorts requires changes to the shell environment. If MacPorts was
installed using the Mac OS X package installer, a “postflight” script
was run after installation that places a .profile file in the home
directory, which contains the environmental variables required for
MacPorts. If a current .profile file exists at installation time it
is renamed to “mpsaved_$timestamp”.
So that i would be able to use the port command witout specifying the
full path i run:
# echo "export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH" >>
~/.bash_profile
So it works for me right now, but i would like to find out why it
didn't install by default and is there something else that would have
been part of the .profile file that i should add to my .bash_profile
file?
thank you,
Marco
