 not use it; instead, MacPorts uses `binpath` as set in macports.conf.
 Certainly, removing /opt/local/bin from `binpath` would be a user error,
 and as it says in macports.conf, "Customizing binpath is unsupported and
 is intended for advanced users only", so let's assume the user didn't do
 that.

 account, and not as the `macports` user.


 I tried doing this:

 {{{
 port pkg-config --version
 Error: Unrecognized action "port pkg-config"
 }}}
