A follow up to my previous posting … I was trying to uninstall MacPorts using the command list in the Documentation->Uninstall part of the web site … Had errors that looked like permissions problems. Logged on as system administrator and it worked. Its different behavior from High Sierra - my normal userid is sudo enabled in /etc/sudo I normally copy/paste the long string of ‘rm’ commands in the document. Up to now it (i.e., High Sierra) it worked ok.
Maybe the docs need to be updated? —— original message — — Date: Wed, 03 Oct 2018 08:16:33 -0400 From: "S. L.

Install went fine, but now it will not uninstall — doing the “rm” commands in /opt/local gets a series of errors rm: /opt/local/var/macports/home/Library/Preferences: Operation not permitted rm: /opt/local/var/macports/home/Library: Operation not permitted rm: /opt/local/var/macports/home: Operation not permitted rm: /opt/local/var/macports: Directory not empty rm: /opt/local/var: Directory not empty rm: /opt/local: Directory not empty mymbp:~ slgarwood$
