     Type:  defect      |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal      |  Milestone:
Component:  base        |    Version:  2.1.2

------------------------+--------------------------------
 As the title suggests, the selfupdate from 2.1.2 to 2.1.3 cannot be made;
 macports attempts to set folders in .../etc to group admin, which I as a
 user cannot do.  Here's the failure:
