-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi, today I had a problem that "port sync" wasn't working anymore. The problem was that it used a rsync version which was removed by me. I didn't knew that macports was using hardcoded paths and so had to search for the offending configuration data. After some time I thought I found it in this file: ${prefix}/share/macports/Tcl/port1.0/port_autoconf.tcl I changed the values but it wasn't working. So I looked further and found it here: /Library/Tcl/macports1.0/macports_autoconf.tcl So I have two questions about it: 1. Why is macports using hardcoded paths for this sort of values. I tried just using "rsync" and it works. 2. Why are there two (configuration) files similar data. I had some problems with macports hardcoded paths some time ago when I tried to install multiple port installations. I never really fixed this and have to rename my port installations to get it work.
