I have a question: what exactly is in the archive? Why is that that deactivate does not archive what was installed on the disk? I mean, if the archives is exactly what is deployed, then it's pure duplication, including in an activate/deactivate scenario: one copy should be enough, be it deployed, or compressed, no? Maybe that would be less invasive, I don't know. Also, do people really use deactivate/activate offline? _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
