Comment (by ag@…):

 Replying to [comment:6 nicos@…]:
 > The fact of making a symlink may not be sufficient, as any manual
 addition to the ports source would be suppressed when running selfupdate
 again, unless it is placed in a local port repository. Furthermore, this
 link may hide the other existing port devel/kcachegrind, which is the
 original reason for suppressing kde/kcachegrind.

 > One way which seemed to work for me is to manually force the full
 creation of a port index with:
 > {{{
 > cd
 ${prefix}/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports
 > sudo portindex -f
 > }}}
 > where ${prefix} is the Macports installation (usually /opt/local). This
 way is also maintained through selfupdates.

 [[br]] Agree with you. I create the link just to prevent "clean" to
 stumble and deleted the link after "clean" have finished the job. Even not
 emptying everything the function will go through all ports and will not
 stop.
 [[br]] Anyway, I will recommend your steps also.
