I remember when building MacPorts manually, it will link with its own  
ports, which isn't so great IMHO. Which is why I now build MacPorts  
through a script which first sets the PATH so it doesn't contain the  
MacPorts prefix. Like this:


#!/bin/bash

PREFIX=/mp

cd ~/macports/base
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin \
./configure \
--prefix=$PREFIX \
--with-tclpackage=$PREFIX/Library/Tcl \
--with-install-user=rschmidt \
--with-install-group=admin \
--with-applications-dir=/Applications/mp \
--with-frameworks-dir=$PREFIX/Library/Frameworks \
--enable-readline || exit $?
make -j2 || exit $?
make install || exit $?
make clean || exit $?
