 `/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dnscrypt-proxy.plist`) is missing.
 I'm currently testing `sudo cp /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/example-
 dnscrypt-proxy.toml /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml`
 right now to see if that resolves things.

 thank you for the prompt response! that does look like it should work.
 Perhaps I was somehow mistaken. Attempting a reinstall after `port
 uninstall` (and removing `/opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy`), it does look
 like the file is copied. I know that in the beginning, I was expecting a
 `dnscrypt-proxy` item to show up in `Login Items`... and started digging.
 Maybe I got confused through the process. It looks like this may be what
 happened, and if so, I am sorry about. It does look like the file is
 copied after all.

 Again, my apologies.

 One request though: could we possibly update the notes to communicate
 where `dnscrypt-proxy.toml` is?
