Forwarding to the macports-users list.
First check whether /opt/local/bin actually ends up being in your PATH
by running 'echo $PATH' in your shell.

I sorry to send this question to you directly but my Macports question
seems not to fit into the unusual cases so I’m not quite sure where to
direct it.
I’m using MacOS high Sierra 10.13.2 and prior to installing Macports Xcode
9.2 was installed. Macports was successfully installed with the downloaded
package installer. Initially Macports worked fine and several ports were
also successfully installed. But after installing further software
including IRAF (sucessfully) and KARMA (unsuccessfully so far), Macports
and the installed ports have ceased to work, e.g.
toms-MacBook-Pro:~ tomscott$ port version
-bash: port: command not found
toms-MacBook-Pro:~ tomscott$ ipython
-bash: ipython: command not found
Below is the content of the .profile file
toms-MacBook-Pro:~ tomscott$ cat .profile
# MacPorts Installer addition on 2017-12-04_at_23:46:09: adding an
appropriate PATH variable for use with MacPorts.
export PATH="/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH"
# Finished adapting your PATH environment variable for use with MacPorts.
# Add iraf setup commands
if [ -e /Users/tomscott/.iraf/setup.sh ]; then
source /Users/tomscott/.iraf/setup.sh
fi
# KARMA
source /opt/karma/.karmarc
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/karma/x86_64_Darwin-15.5/bin
toms-MacBook-Pro:~ tomscott$
Also here is the content o the usr/local directory:
toms-MacBook-Pro:local tomscott$ pwd
/usr/local
toms-MacBook-Pro:local tomscott$ ls
bin include karma lib man remotedesktop share texlive
toms-MacBook-Pro:local tomscott$
I’m not sure how to proceed, e.g., would be be harmful to reinstall Macport
using the package installer again with out removing the current version or
might there be easier ways to try first to get Macports and its ports to
run again? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Tom
