 I've successfully installed things like mc, but installing GIMP produced
 an error (below) with dbus.  It is probably that I installed KDE for Mac,
 which installed dbus.  I suppose I could install KDE via macports, but it
 would be nice if macports could skip already installed packages.  This
 could be a defect or enhancement, depending on one's point of view....

 Error from terminal:
 "Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error:
 /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist already exists
 and does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port dbus."
