Hello Christopher,
That's the Downloads link on the first hit on Google for me when
searching for "yuicompressor". Are you quite new to using open source
software?
Mind you, we don't have openjdk, Oracle's open source version of Java--
the most complete one I think, in MacPorts yet. It seems it won't be
simple to put in until OpenJDK 9 is out, when they'll support clang. gcj
(the GNU compiler collection version) is dead (or "certainly lying down"
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4035538/is-gnus-java-compiler-gcj-dead
), and I'm not sure what state kaffe (another open source Java) is in,
but IIRC it's far less complete than OpenJDK.
The usual ways for ports to depend on java seem to be
1) "depends_lib bin:java:kaffe" or similar to use any java
binary in the path, e.g. from Oracle's installer, or install the port
"kaffe" (that's what jruby does along with 54 or so other ports; port -q
search java 2>/dev/null | xargs port cat 2>/dev/null | grep
bin:java:kaffe | wc -l ) or
2) using the java PortGroup (as 8 do; port -q search java 2>/dev/null |
xargs port cat 2>/dev/null | egrep 'PortGroup.*java' | wc -l ).
You could also use the github PortGroup to install a particular release.

If you decide to have a go at drafting a Portfile (the easiest way is to
look at existing ones-- and it's not that hard), it'd be best to post to
macports-dev if you need help.

Hey Russell,
Thanks.
I have no problem at all using an alias for such a thing – but the
module is not installed, and I couldn't find it yesterday after quite
a lot of searching.
I took another crack at it today and finally found it.
