#67257: dnscrypt-proxy port notes: wrong and missing crucial instructions
--------------------+----------------------------

 Keywords:          |       Port:  dnscrypt-proxy
--------------------+----------------------------
 as it currently stands, `dnscrypt-proxy` has the following notes:
 {{{
 --->  dnscrypt-proxy has the following notes:
 To use this port, update your DNS server settings to point to 127.0.0.1
 (in the Network Preference Pane -> Advanced... -> DNS tab)

 If you are upgrading from dnscrypt-proxy 2.0.x, the configuration file has
 changed and you will need to modify your configuration file to  match the
 2.1.x configuration file requirements.

 A startup item has been generated that will aid in starting dnscrypt-proxy
 with launchd. It is disabled by default. Execute the following command to
 start it, and to cause it to launch at startup:

     sudo port load dnscrypt-proxy
 }}}

 Running `sudo port load dnscrypt-proxy` at the command line after
 installation though does not work.

 My initial assessment was that it's because `/opt/local/share/dnscrypt-
 proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml` (mentioned in
 `/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dnscrypt-proxy.plist`) is missing.
 HOWEVER, even after `sudo cp /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/example-
 dnscrypt-proxy.toml /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml`,
 runnning `sudo port load dnscrypt-proxy` still does not work (I get no
 errors or complaints though, at the command line; and `echo $?` gives
 `0`).
