Hi, I have no recommendation for you regarding how remove things. However I wanted to note a rationale for keeping the ports collection. Consider that Apple's distribution of a particular OS release will contain older versions of included 3rd party products (ruby, perl, apache, sshd too!). So the Apple built versions will be older than the currently available version. This version discrepancy will exist even if you have the latest version of Mac OS. Accordingly, if you do not upgrade every paid release cycle for Apple's new release, the older versions can become a problem especially if the OS is used in a real production environment.. There are more good reasons than the above, too. Can anyone think of a negative? Perhaps, if you prepend the proper paths for MacPorts at the beginning of your PATH variable, then perhaps it will appear you only have one version installed.

Hi guys, after the installation of macports it is possible ro remove all software developer tools and gcc 3.3, 4.0 and just macports?
I really prefer this way instead of having two versions of ruby, perl and so on.
Thanks.
