I use the DP-standard /opt/local for my DarwinPorts prefix (I even  
attached a copy of my /opt/local/etc/ports/ports.conf file to show  
this). In /opt/local, I currently have

In addition to the software for DP that I have installed in /opt/ 
local, I have installed my own software in /usr/local which comprises  
of Gerben Wierda's MacTeX (http://www.tug.org/mactex/) and Gaurav  
Khanna's Octave (hpc.sf.net). Judging by a `port deps octave`, it is  
clear that I have readline in /usr/local/lib due to this Octave  
installation. Unfortunately, I have no choice but to use this  
particular installation because DP currently does not support Octave  
on Intel Macs. I know that I can uninstall this Octave, then build  
DP, and then re-install Octave, but that seems messy and complicated,  
especially since there will be more updates to DP (and it would be  
nice to use the efficient selfupdate). Any ideas? Thank you for your  
assistance.
