I don't have a pkgIndex.tcl file in /opt/local/share/darwinports/ 
pextlib1.0, the directory seems to be actually:

/opt/local/share/darwinports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/

jeeeez :)

_THAT_ worked :)

Thank you very much, Ryan, Paul and Chuck for your hints.

Now, I think that deserves some kind of explanation of the top page
