You will need to put the portfile somewhere where MacPorts can read it. Ever since the gsoc08-privileges branch was merged into MacPorts, locations in your home directory are no longer a good place, unless you use chmod to change the permissions of your home directory to allow the macports user to look inside it. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
