 Replying to [comment:3 macports.5.msliczniak@…]:
 > I'm saying that when I log in to the Mac OS GUI as a user not in the
 admin group and then /usr/bin/login -p ... to one that is so that I can
 run sudo port install ... in the cases of ports that run /usr/bin/java I
 don't get the dialog explaining that there is no java installed and that
 something should be added to the installation or faq page detailing what
 java you might need on what OS X version.

 None of that behavior is because of MacPorts, and we cannot do anything to
 change that—aside from providing a version of Java within MacPorts to
 avoid weird behaviors of the system version, which may be something we
 should try to do, but I don't think anyone has attempted it yet.
