Thank you, fixed.
In the meantime I also tried to incorporate all the different versions
into a single port
https://trac.macports.org/browser/users/mojca/ports/science/geant/Portfile
(without extensive testing yet).
This time I implemented "all data into a single port" strategy to see
how it compares with "each data file into its own port".
Drawbacks:
- more space needed (there can be duplicated/identical data files for
different versions of Geant)
- I like it slightly more if all data files would be in
share/Geant4/Data rather than in
share/Geant4/Data/Geant4.9.5
share/Geant4/Data/Geant4.9.6
share/Geant4/Data/Geant4.10.0
Advantages:
- less ports
- less ports to uninstall when upgrading from, say, 9.5 to 9.6
- when upgrading from beta release to the official one, data files
required by beta are removed automatically
