 In my `macports.conf` I have `applications_dir` set as
 `/opt/local/Applications/MacPorts`, however when installing `python27`,
 for example, the app bundles are installed in `/Applications/MacPorts`. I
 notice that the port is installed from a package and not built from source
 but shouldn't the final location honour the configuration options?

 If the any of the paths are non-default should base force the ports to be
 built from source?
