That may be the main objective, but why not also support darwin without the propietary parts of Mac OS X? As I understand it, if it runs on Darwin it must run on Mac OS X... but I guess it's CLI-only apps...
Because it's more work (just being at the CLI doesn't mean MacOSX technologies can't easily become dependencies) for pretty much no gain. Darwin as a stand-alone OS is dead and has been dead for enough years now that there's just no point in supporting it.

There has being ~3 attempts to make a 100% FOSS Darwin distro, or to bring the concept from the dead... the interest is there... but I agree in that MacPorts should support Darwin once it's more mature (as a stand-alone OS). Esteban Barahona http://www.anagami.net
