I don't know what "portcode" is but that web site is not affiliated  
with this project.

Also you'll note that's version 1.5.0 for Mac OS X 10.4; the current  
version is 1.6.0 and is of course available from our website, in  
flavors for Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5:

Before installing, you should run through our uninstall instructions,  
in case your previous attempt did in fact install something which  
might conflict with a correct installation:

More info about installing MacPorts is here:

You'll probably have to set up your .profile manually; see:
