Unistalling gmic-gimp macport

Hi,

Very much thanks for very prompt answer.

So, I did reinstall the macports to Sonoma version, and then I followed this instruction:

https://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html

to remove macports completely. However, /opt/local still contains data (I assume it is all macports related) and it is 2.7GB big. Can I just remove it manually safely?

Moreover, it seems the uninstall procedure is pretty far from cleaning everything. As I said installation of gmic-gimp port alone took 10GB. Not even mentioning the other part of macports. Now, after removal of all the ports, only 3GB of disk space was released. Adding 2.7GB from /opt/local makes it 5-6GB the top. Are there any other macports’ leftovers I should remove manually?

BR

Michal

I know there are some upgrade instructions, but I did not follow them, I admit. Having the problem with disk space I do not put even more overhead of it, without being certain that eventually I will get rid of this extra 10GB space.

Can you help me with my problem to remove gmic-gimp from my drive?

The error message you encountered can be overcome by installing MacPorts for macOS Sonoma. It should not need any more disk space than is already being used by MacPorts.


Just remove the complete MacPorts installation (/opt/local), you can’t use it anyway on a different platform.
Just removing /opt/local is not the correct way to uninstall MacPorts. The correct way is documented in the MacPorts Guide.
