 Aw yeah! MacPorts never installs anything into `/usr/local`. HomeBrew does
 install stuff there. Also, if you've installed TeXLive or HPC gfortran
 from a .pkg file (not MacPorts) then that would also put stuff there. I
 would recommend installing the equivalent software you had in `/usr/local`
 with MacPorts. For example, to install gfortran, you'll need

 {{{
 $ sudo port install gcc48
 }}}

 And for texlive, I usually install most everything,

 {{{
 $ sudo port install texlive-bibtex-extra texlive-math-extra texlive-
 formats-extra texlive-latex-extra texlive-plain-extra texlive-bin-extra
 }}}
