This would mean that MacPorts can work reliably with homebrew installed. It would not necessarily mean homebrew would ignore all MacPorts-installed software. It is, however, a lot easier for homebrew to ignore /opt/local than it is for MacPorts to ignore /usr/local (which is why most MacPorts devs don't particularly like homebrew's decision to use /usr/local): Make sure $PATH doesn't contain /opt/local when using brew and you should be fine (except for the software that explicitly tries to find stuff in /opt/local, which should be patched by the homebrew folks to avoid doing that). -- Clemens Lang _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
