 in the [m]pkg phase?

 I got a colleague who does not have any macports installed to test the dmg
 file.
 The installation went fine but
 {{{
 cd /opt/local/bin
 ./python2.6
 python2.6: execv:
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python:
 No such file or directory
 }}}

 Having a little look around
 {{{
 ls /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/
 Info.plist
 ls -lrt /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6
 total 4144
 drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel      102 Mar  7 14:00 share
 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  2117472 Mar  7 14:00 Python
 drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel      102 Mar  7 14:00 lib
 drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel      102 Mar  7 14:00 include
 lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel       17 Mar  7 15:44 Headers ->
 include/python2.6
 drwxr-xr-x  15 root  wheel      510 Mar  7 15:44 bin
 drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel      102 Mar  7 15:44 Resources
 }}}

 On my build machine with MacPorts
 {{{
 ls -lrt
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/
 total 24
 -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  8576  7 Mar 14:00 Python*
 }}}

 So that it does not appear to be the full solution.
