So the only two leftovers are build and sources. I figured it wasn't worth moving build as it either has stuff that's already installed or builds that failed at some stage (and in any case, everything in that dir should be reproducible with the appropriate set of port commands). As for sources, it contains the ports tree which I move with the second set of instructions (and which we could always refetch in any case) and the MacPorts sourcs dir, which not only I cannot move while building MacPorts itself but also becomes obsolete right after the upgrade finishes.
So, in a nutshell, yeah, you can nuke db/dports ;-)
Hi, I also removed this directory but after this I had a (minor) problem. sqlite3 was installed as dependency of another port; it was still listed with "port installed". But if I typed "port install sqlite3" it didn't abort but tried to install it and then failed on the activate action (because the other sqlite3 was still active). I didn't know why this happened so I just installed macports from source and removed the whole /opt directory.
