New description:

 The ports package (or is it autobench?) thinks the .autobench.conf file is
 in the wrong directory.  Observer... upon running autobench for the first
 time:
 {{{
 $ autobench
 Autobench configuration file not found
  - installing new copy in /Users/mgood/.autobench.conf
 cp:
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_www_autobench/work/destroot/opt/local/etc/autobench.conf:
 No such file or directory
 Installation complete - please rerun autobench
 }}}

 However, because the .autobench.conf file wasn't found, rerunning
 autobench causes the same error message.

 My Workaround:
 I manually copied the .autobench.conf file from the actual source
 location:
 {{{
 cp
 /opt/local/var/macports/software/autobench/2.1.2_0/opt/local/etc/autobench.conf
 ~/.autobench.conf
 }}}

 The workaround seems just fine... but DarwinPorts/MacPorts/autobench
 should have known originally where the .autobench.conf file was during the
 setup script.

 Matthew, please remember WikiFormatting. :)

 Toby, please remember to increase the revision when you make a change that
 causes the installed software to be different. I did so this time for you
 in r45431.
