 Replying to [comment:19 jwhowse4@…]:
 > I am not certain I understand the definition of normalized in this
 context, but the symlink to /opt existed on my system before any version
 of macports was installed.

 Normalized means the paths in `$prefix` and `$portdbpath` should not
 contain any components that are symlinks or aliases, i.e. he is suggesting
 you should have configured your MacPorts installation using
 `--prefix=$(readlink /opt)/local`.
