This thread made me realize my 2 year old default macports.conf is hopelessly out of date. A quick search of FAQ, Guide, etc. didn't turn up any advice on how best to update it, and I expect that just replacing it with the latest default may not work. Any pointers?

thanks,

Peter

No, it means there *aren't* any, because the few ports that have that capability in their source aren't anywhere near enough to bother with the additional complexity of trying to support it in the buildbot.
OK, now you successfully annihilated my last bit of hope. ;-)

When you think of how dynamic linking of binaries with libraries and other stuff is done, it is clear that MacPorts could never provide precompiled binaries for a custom prefix. Unless, of course, everything were built static which poses much more problems on OS X :)
