I also got it done that way now. Just had to take care to save my original installations (i.e. move them out of the way and later move them back). Otherwise the installation starts to do a lot of linking...whatever. Seems to work :). So now I have one 32 bit tree and one 64bit. So far ok. Just annoying since I have to specify the right flags at the command line everytime (defaults in macport.tcl seem to be ignored) and some packages don't use configure but patched makefiles which requires some handwork. General suggestion: it would be nice if there would be a 64bit variant, and the possibility to stack variants (i.e. something like +ppc +64). Just my 2 cents.

if you didn't build with --with-tclpackage set so that your two installs have separate package directories, that could be causing your problem.
Hi, could you elaborate a bit on that. I have the exact same problem with: - two macport trees: /opt/local/ installed as a regular install and /opt/local-exp installed from source with --prefix=/opt/local- exp/ - no ~/.macports - the sources in both ${prefix}/etc/macports.conf are pointing to the correct location and still the port command in /opt/local/bin/port lists the content of /opt/local-exp/
You need to rebuild port (ideally twice).
Soemthing like:
./configure --prefix=/opt/local --with-tclpackage=/opt/local/share/ tcl and ./configure --prefix=/opt/local-exp --with-tclpackage=/opt/local- exp/share/tcl
should work
Thanks it works indeed. I've only done the first one and everything seems to be working correctly. I'll do the second install too anyway, just to be sure and because I need to upgrade it to 1.6 no matter what. Thanks again (IMHO, this deserves a FAQ somewhere)
