I'm working on a new version of MythTV and building in a non-standard

The path probably comes from the home directory of the macports user
that is used for privilege separation in several phases of the build
process of a port.
$ dscl . -read /Users/macports NFSHomeDirectory
NFSHomeDirectory: /opt/local/var/macports/home
Yes, that's it!
You macports user was added by a previous installation in the default
prefix. I suppose these messages are harmless, but you could change it
to the home directory in the prefix you are using.
Shoot, that's right. I brainlessly ran the .dmg
installer for MacPorts and immediately realized
my error and deleted the /opt/local hierarchy.
The macports user survived, however.
Did the following to change the value:
$ sudo dscl . -change /Users/macports
NFSHomeDirectory /opt/local/var/macports/home
/opt/dvr/var/macports/home
Hopefully that will quiet the blather!
