Comment (by marty@…):

 Sorry for the tardy reply, but in trying to install this, I've run into
 problems; I suspect they're just due to my lack of understanding of
 testing a MacPort, but I will show what I've run into below (I read all
 the related info from Comment 7 above, but I must still be doing something
 wrong):

 1. I downloaded the valkyrie Portfile.3 and put it in /tmp (note I did not
 setup a local repository because it seemed per the instructions that was
 not completely necessary; please correct me if I'm wrong). I will redo it
 with the final noted patches once I understand more of this.
 2. I cd-ed into /tmp and attempted to install the portfile. I ntoed from
 Google hits on the error that this is somewhat common of a problem, but
 I've not yet figured out what I'm doing wrong. Please point me at any
 resources that I should be reading to understand a local install and the
 port install syntax actually needed.

 Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("Could not find
 Portfile in /private/tmp").
 Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct.
 To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory.

 Apologies in advance if I'm being a bit thick here, I'll endeavor to get
 better. Again, thanks to all for your efforts on this!
