Comment (by mtb19@…):
My apologies, I was unaware of the desire to remove `no_*` variants.
It may be desirable to have couchdb and mongodb run as system-wide daemons
as a ''default'', but it should not be ''required''. There are cases where
it is extremely beneficial for a non-root user to be able to install and
run them from a well-supported software management system (like MacPorts)
without error (e.g., for development purposes, where there may be a desire
to run as many concurrent instances as branches being actively developed).
My tickets (this and #40364) have been filed under my (perhaps erroneous)
assumption that supporting non-root user MacPorts installations is
desirable. (I seem to recall reading support for that assumption
somewhere, although I forget where.)
If these are not helpful, then I apologize. It is not my intention to
frustrate.
