One question on the 1.4.1 release. In the ChangeLog for 1.4.1, I saw this line...
- Add xar 1.4 into the build of MacPorts base. xar is now installed into /opt/local/, which will conflict with anybody who has the xar port installed. (jberry in r23687).
So, does this mean I should to a `port uninstall xar`, since I have it installed? Or is it too late?
It probably doesn't matter too much. port still believes you've got xar installed, and the 1.4.1 upgrade wrote a new copy of xar over itself, which shouldn't hurt anything. Due to troubles building xar on panther (without the libxml2 dependency), I'm going to pull the xar build out of MacPorts 1.4.2. So I think if you just sit tight you can pretend nothing happened.
