 Please add notes to let people know that if the user's login shell is
 bash, it will not get upgraded when this bash port is installed.
 One must do the following.


 - Check current bash shell version with

 {{{
 echo $BASH_VERSION
 }}}

 - Add /opt/local/bin/bash to /etc/shells
 - change default login shell

 {{{
 chsh -s /opt/local/bin/bash
 }}}

 - Open a new shell and check $BASH_VERSION again
