Hi Josh, Thanks very much for your reply.
I don't see any clear instructions for libSVM at http://trac.macports.org/wiki/DarwinPorts, unfortunately. Am I missing something? My concern about libsvm is that none of the linux commands are working on it (man, which, locate, etc). Does that mean that there's a problem? Also, I'm not sure what you mean about the PATH. Is this a variable that I need to change? I was just referring to which directories were created by the installer.
