Comment:
Thanks for reporting this problem. I agree with you, there is something
wrong with MacPorts-2.6.4-10.11-ElCapitan.pkg. When I extract
/opt/local/bin/daemondo from it, the file is all zeroes. We should
probably recreate and rerelease this file. Josh, would you have time to do
that?
Such a problem is not unprecedented. We previously had a different problem
with MacPorts-2.6.3-10.12-Sierra.pkg and had to rerelease it; see #60982.
The installers for older systems don't get as much testing since most
users of older systems already installed MacPorts before and update using
selfupdate rather than the pkg installer. selfupdate compiles on the
user's own system and avoids any problems that might be present in our
pkgs.
