Comment (by kencu):

 you are quite right, the virtual desktop app is not following proper
 instructions, and has taken over /opt/local for a large number it's
 libraries.

 https://download.vrdesktop.net/files/VirtualDesktop.Streamer.Setup.dmg

 Of course, we are very pleased they are using MacPorts to get this done.
 But there are instructions that applications that would like to distribute
 packages built with MacPorts should use their own custom prefix (like, say
 /opt/virtualdesktop), so as not to trample all of MacPorts in the process.
