 Hello,

 I have succeeded in installing dx from the macports.

 However, it can not launch and I have the following comment
 {{{
 > dx
 Error: attempt to add non-widget child "dsm" to parent "startupui" which
 supports only widgets
 }}}
 Also, I had the following comments in the building of dx:
 {{{
 bash-3.2$ sudo port install opendx
 --->  Fetching opendx
 --->  Verifying checksum(s) for opendx
 --->  Extracting opendx
 --->  Configuring opendx
 --->  Building opendx
 --->  Staging opendx into destroot
 Warning: violation by /opt/local/dx
 Warning: opendx violates the layout of the ports-filesystems!
 Warning: Please fix or indicate this misbehavior (if it is intended), it
 will be an error in future releases!
 --->  Installing opendx @4.4.4_1+darwin_9
 --->  Activating opendx @4.4.4_1+darwin_9
 --->  Cleaning opendx
 }}}
 Thanks by advance,

 Cédric

 PS: It is the first time I use macports so I may have done something
 wrong. Note also that I have used the enclosed Portfile found on the
 macports pages. Without it, configure dx did not work with the version of
 macports.

Comment:

 Since opendx depends on openmotif, it's probably related to #18114.

 The {{{violation by /opt/local/dx}}} suggests either that the port should
 install files elsewhere or declare that it violates the standard layout.
