Hi there, Is there a way to manually edit the registry? Macports reports that ruby is installed, but it isn't. I'd like to install it. $ sudo port -vd installed | grep ruby ruby @1.8.5-p12_0 $ sudo port -vd uninstall ruby ---> Uninstalling ruby 1.8.5-p12_0 DEBUG: skip missing file: /private/tmp/0 DEBUG: /private/tmp is not empty DEBUG: /private is not empty DEBUG: / is not empty ---> Uninstall is removing ruby from the port registry. $ sudo port -vd installed | grep ruby ruby @1.8.5-p12_0 $ sudo port -vdf install ruby DEBUG: Found port in file:///opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/lang/ruby DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/lang/ruby DEBUG: Requested variant i386 is not provided by port ruby.
