Ok. When MacPorts runs, it does of course clear most of the environment variables, including PATH, and set them to known-good values. But this should not affect anything outside of that MacPorts process. I don't know why your shell environment variables are changing in this way. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
