Just wanted to inform everybody that with the help of @kencu at macports.org
<kencu at macports.org>  the vpcs
port is now officially completed since yesterday.

I learned a lot in a day full of tinkering.

Thanks once again to Ken for guiding me and tutoring me in my baby steps on
Macports.

Regards,

Erik (Lastic)
