A port is clashing with another program installed in /opt that is not a port

[Jeremy Lavergne]

> $ port notes dbus
> dbus has the following notes:
>  ############################################################################
>  # Startup items have been generated that will aid in
>  # starting dbus with launchd. They are disabled
>  # by default. Execute the following command to start them,
>  # and to cause them to launch at startup:
>  #
>  # sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist
>  # launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
>  ############################################################################
> 
> I am not familiar with dbus and don't use software that uses dbus, so I don't know if it will auto-start these daemons, but I have no reason to believe it will; if the above steps were not necessary to perform manually, I doubt the maintainer of the port would have gone to the trouble of adding the note.

Would the maintainer have removed it if it was no longer necessary?
