My feeling is, the sooner the better, there are already a handful of blogs out there, which instructions and hard paths in their instructions pointing to the current location. The sooner we put it where MacPorts recommends, the better the long term usability is going to be.

how about leaving it where it has been for years? I suspect many people who use the port have become "attached" to the current location, including me.


Scott,

Please don't change it.

I wish mysql, pgsql, php were setup in individual directories like apache2.

That was one of the niceties of installing them individually in /usr/ local

/usr/local/apache
/usr/local/mysql
/usr/local/pgsql
/usr/local/php

It may not work as well with shared resources, etc. but there is something really nice about going to one folder and finding everything you need for one application. symlinks can address any difficulties.

Thanks for the efforts...
