Hey, I thought, so I don't need to port trees on my system (I have a subversion-tree for Portfile maintenance anyway)... I edit /opt/ local/etc/macports/sources.conf and that's what I get:

I know how to update that dports tree manually, but it would be nice to have port sync working that way;)
Hmm... I've been using a Subversion working copy for my dports tree for a long time, but I forgot that I had also installed this function in my ~/.bashrc: port() { case "$1" in sync) PORTS_DIR=/Users/rschmidt/macports/dports svn revert $PORTS_DIR/PortIndex | sed s%$PORTS_DIR/%% svn up $PORTS_DIR | sed s%$PORTS_DIR/%% ;; esac } My dports tree is owned by me, and I can just "port sync" (without sudo) and it updates.
