 Hello

 I downloaded the disk image for the latest version of mac ports for
 Leopard.  I ran the installer and it completed successfully but mac ports
 was not installed.

 I looked in /opt/local/bin for the files and the dates don't seem right:
 here's the output from there

 robert-wattss-macbook:bin rob$ ls -g
 total 344
 -r-xr-xr-x  1 admin  73568 Dec 17  2007 daemondo
 -r-xr-xr-x  1 admin  83411 Dec 17  2007 port
 lrwxr-xr-x  1 admin      4 Oct 14 20:34 portf -> port
 -r-xr-xr-x  1 admin   4356 Dec 17  2007 portindex
 -r-xr-xr-x  1 admin   2530 Dec 17  2007 portmirror

 Also, after restarting my shell, I can't do a "man port" or just type
 "port"- I get command not found.

 I also don't have all of these.  I indicated the ones that I do have
 /Applications/MacPorts \
 /Applications/DarwinPorts \
 /Library/Tcl/macports1.0 \  <<-- I have this one
 /Library/Tcl/darwinports1.0 \
 /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.* \
 /Library/StartupItems/DarwinPortsStartup \
 /Library/Receipts/MacPorts*.pkg \ <<-- I have this one
 /Library/Receipts/DarwinPorts*.pkg \
 /etc/manpaths.d/macports \
 /etc/paths.d/macports

 I have tried to build from source as well but that failed.  I can re-try
 that and capture the output if you want.

 I have an up to date system 10.5 w/ XCODE 3.0, X11 seems to be installed
 also.

 I'm not sure what's wrong here.
 I could also send my console output.
