By the way, manpage permissions should be 444, and as share/man/man8 is already in mtree, it is useless to install it beforehand.
Ah thanks Anthony. I corrected that. I think that was the first port I ever did. But about creating directories, I'm confused about that. Question 1: I thought I had to create directories manually when copying my own destroot or pre- or post- destroot phases. If not, can it simply be omitted for the file specified in the MacPorts guide under "MacPorts File Hierarchy". That is the mtree, correct? I think I create directories in destroot for a lot of ports, and I thought others did too so I'm confused. Question 2: Are there other file permission standards to which we should be adhering? Can we state a standard for manpages, docs, executables, etc., when we install them manually? I can document this type of thing for posterity in the new guide. Mark
