installing error: xorg-proto

[Soo-Hyun Choi]

I think, finally, I have successfully installed "xorg-proto" package by
editing portfile as Mark described - "sudo port ed xorg-proto" and add
"archive { }" appropriately in the file.


soohyunc at davinci: ~ $ sudo port installed
[snipped]
  xorg-xproto @7.0.11_0 (active)
[snipped]
soohyunc at davinci: ~ $


Thanks for your kind help.
Regards,
Soo-Hyun
