Just be aware that Leopard ships with a more than usable Apache 2.2.X,
Python 2.5.1 and subversion. Thus you do not need to use MacPorts to
install these. All you would need is Trac and mod_wsgi (if want to
host under Apache). For Trac and mod_wsgi I would suggest just getting
the source code from original sites, or use easy_install for Trac if
now supported, as have seen too many people having problems with
MacPorts causing problems, especially if you are using a 64 bit
capable Mac machine. This is because Apache runs 64 bits and some
MacPorts stuff (unless now fixed), was not fully fat and so wouldn't
work properly if wanting to run under Trac/Python/mod_wsgi under
Apache.
If you are after some sort of endorsement (from a Trac developer) that
using standard Mac supplied versions of these software is okay, see:
