Ok, I have quite a lot of stuff (important stuff) in /usr/local, so I
want to make sure I won't mess this up. You are saying that before
installing, updating/upgrading anything with Macports I should run:
$ mv /usr/local /usr/local-disabled
And then after it is built, I can simply move back:
$ mv /usr/local-disabled /usr/local
Is that right?
Thanks again,
Guilherme
