Hi,

I also removed this directory but after this I had a (minor) problem.
sqlite3 was installed as dependency of another port; it was still listed
with "port installed". But if I typed "port install sqlite3" it didn't
abort but tried to install it and then failed on the activate action
(because the other sqlite3 was still active).

I didn't know why this happened so I just installed macports from source
and removed the whole /opt directory.

Just wanted to let you know of this,
Simon
