My port system seems to be genuinely corrupt on all levels. Is there any simple way to remove ALL ports, including port itself, and do it all over?
Unless you've been manually installing things into /opt:
Yes, I have some other stuff on /opt/local. I thought this was the MacOSX (and Linux?) standard for non-system add-ons, and not dedicated to macports only. Whenever I have installed opensource I have directed it to /opt/local rather than /usr/local.
sudo rm -rf /opt/local
If you've got a slow connection and enough disk space, you might want to preserve one directory containing the original source code for packages that have already been downloaded:
sudo mv /opt/local/var/db/dports/distfiles /opt/distfiles sudo rm -rf /opt/local [... reinstall MacPorts, but don't install any packages yet ...] sudo mv /opt/distfiles/* /opt/local/var/db/dports/distfiles/ sudo rmdir /opt/distfiles
This should not hurt even if some of those files are corrupt, since the freshly installed port system will check their signatures before using them. It might waste some disk space, though.
