Dear Folk,

The reference was enlightening, but what does ${worksrcpath} mean? It is part of the definitions for configure, build, and destroot. Ultimately it's defined in terms of ${portbuildpath} which has only one use on that page in the definition of workpath. ???

        More is better than less when it comes to definitions.

        Shalom,

        John B. Brown.

You might become familiar with the various phases available:
http://guide.macports.org/#reference.phases
or the man page.

Rather than going past all the phases and installing the package, you might 
consider completing only the phases before where you need the modify the 
package source code and then running the remainder.

As you did in your previous email, keep -s on so you don't accidentally clobber 
all your work with a pre-built binary from MacPorts.
