#59912: python38 @3.8.1_0: IDLE.app And Python Launcher.app Installed In
"/opt/local/Applications/Python 3.8" Instead Of
"/Applications/MacPorts/Python 3.8"

 Reporter:  Quibi   |      Owner:  (none)
     Type:  defect  |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Low     |  Milestone:
Component:  ports   |    Version:  2.6.2
 Keywords:          |       Port:  python38
--------------------+----------------------
 The application bundles **IDLE.app** and **Python Launcher.app** for
 **Python 3.8** are installed in "**/opt/local/Applications/Python 3.8**"
 not in "**/Applications/MacPorts/Python 3.8**". as bundles for other
 Python versions (for instance, such as, "/Applications/MacPorts/Python
 3.7").

 After installing Python 3.8, I have noticed that IDLE and Python Launcher
 for this version are not in macOS Application folder but in a sub-folder
 in /opt/local. I have manually moved them to the Application folder.

 I checked my macports configuration file macports.conf but found that
 applications_dir is properly set:
 {{{
 applications_dir /Applications/MacPorts
 }}}

 I am not sure if I should check other configurations or settings that can
 cause this defect.

 I am running macOs Mojave 10.14.6

 Thank you.
