The install installed directly to /opt/local instead of to the staging area, so it is not possible to make a package for distribution, test for collisions with other packages, use "port activate"/"port deactivate", etc. You should find out what is needed to create a package instead of installing directly. Also this is more appropriate for macports-dev. :info:destroot /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libsundials_fkinsol.lai > /opt/local/lib/libsundials_fkinsol.la > > note that it went straight to /opt/local/lib. While it's unlikely in this case, potentially it could have overwritten something there and you would be none the wiser. And you still can't create a package or an archive from it. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
