Unfortunately it isn't that simple to tell – there might be software compiled using MacPorts that executes tools without absolute paths at runtime which could, depending on the order of directories in your $PATH variable pick up an incompatible version of something from /usr/local. I agree this possibility *is* getting rather remote, though. -- Clemens Lang _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
