The files, /opt/local and /opt/local/var/macports/software exist and when I run echo $PATH it includes the path /opt/local/bin. However, the file /opt/local/bin/port does not exist. Also when I used to run open whatever.pdf file a pdf file would open. Is this a macports related problem as well? I may sound silly, sorry for my ignorance.
