Not quite.
Some ports install startup items (and even new users).
By default, MacPorts may also have installed stuff in
/Library/Tcl and /Applications/MacPorts.
When installing MacPorts, you can put everything in /opt/local (as I do)
by using the options seen with configure --help.

By default, MacPorts should not try to install anything in /usr/share.
Try the following:
   *  which port
   * The command should result in /opt/local/bin/port
   * If so, open the file /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf
   * Look at the value of prefix

The value of prefix should be /opt/local.
