 > Just for fun, I just now tried "port list active". Viola! Just what I
 wanted -- the "port list installed" without the duplicates

 it's probably still not what you want, as you seemingly didn't read the
 FAQ you were pointed to.

 You probably want `port echo active`

 particular port has a conflict with something in a standard Mac
 installation. Duh. AND... are there any side effects from stripping out
 pieces of the standard Mac OS, outdated or not?

 There's nothing /Library/Frameworks in a standard Mac installation that
 will cause problems (but you can install stuff there that might cause a
 problem. There is nothing at all in /usr/local in a standard installation
 (but again, you can install stuff there that might cause a problem).
