Comment(by dports@…):

 I've moved the portfiles into svn: `svn co
 http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/users/dports/ports texports`
 will get you the latest copy.

 Two major changes since my last post:

 * upgrade path for the texlive 2007 ports; it should now be possible to
 just `port upgrade texlive\*` (or `port upgrade outdated`) and end up with
 a working install of texlive 2009
 * post-deactivate hooks: generated format files and other things will be
 cleaned up when ports are removed.

 Both require features in macports 1.9, so you'll need to have that
 installed.

 Open problems that I'm aware of:

 * texlive-bin installs symlinks that might be broken if the packages
 containing their targets aren't installed
 * texlive-htmlxml doesn't work yet
 * context mark IV is broken (this is an upstream bug w/ TL 2009)
 * texlive_bin may not build +no_x11. Might work with poppler +quartz.

 I don't think any of these are showstoppers...
