Where? Under darwinports/ ?
Under darwinports/dports/<relevantcategory>/<nameofyourport>/Portfile
Is the path important or not?
Not really, but this is where you'll want it to live if you contribute
it, so you might as well start off doing it with that in mind.
I'm asking it because I've got only this problem: destroot
installs software into a directory tree below in the work
directory, but my work/destroot/opt/local/ dir is empty!
looks like you need to do more work to get the port to properly install
into DESTDIR in your example?
I've all files of ported software in /opt/local/, all works but
is this correct?
Did the port install it there directly, or did it go into the destdir
first?
You might take a look at a working port first, running "port build"
then "port destroot" then "port install" and seeing how things look in
work/ and /opt/local at the various steps along the way. This is what
your port should do.
