 I had to reinstall Mac OS X (10.6.8, Snow Leopard) and did it from a
 TimeMachine backup. I tried to preserve UIDs and GIDs by first logging in
 as some temporary user, but Migration Assistant mixed things up:

 {{{
 pete 138 /\ dscl . -read /Users/macports

 }}}

 So when I uninstalled old and deactivated packages port would the warning
 in the subject. I fixed this by running

 {{{
 dscl . change /Users/macports PrimaryGroupID 502 501
 }}}

 Is there more to perform? Like a 'chown -R ...'
