hello,

I wonder how to inform macports that I have manually installed a tar.gz which is in its port-list, the tar.gz being often more recent that the version in the port-list.

so my question is double: 

-inform macports (purpose: activate the port)

-upgrade the port

Also, I wonder the rule of the message variants:universal after the info command. I think this means that it is possible to download a dmg. Is it true?

thank you,

lolveley.
