This port broke my system. Good thing I had backups, so I could figure out
what went wrong.
$ sudo port -v selfupdate
[upgrade to 1.8.0]
$ port outdated
The following installed ports are outdated:
libcanberra 0.15_0 < 0.16_0
$ sudo port -puv upgrade libcanberra
... warnings about skipping upgrades ...
---> Cleaning libcanberra
---> Removing build directory for libcanberra
---> Uninstalling libcanberra @0.15_0
---> Uninstall is removing libcanberra from the port registry.
$ port outdated
zsh: command not found: port
What the F.
Turns out the install is *removing* my /opt symlink, which
points at private/opt.
Why is the new installer removing my symlink? That's none of its
business.
