Comment:
We do not have the resources to support every user's whim, and the whim of
setting the MacPorts prefix to /usr/local is one that is fraught with
peril and a high degree of probability that users will encounter unique
problems that they will then write to us for help with that we will then
waste time dealing with. We don't want to waste time on that, so we
disabled this ability. If you have comments about this decision, please
write to macports-users; do not re-open tickets fixed 15 months ago.
