/usr/local question

[Jeremy Lavergne]

> I might not be opposed to MacPorts printing a warning if anything is found in /usr/local/{bin,etc,include,lib,libexec,man,sbin,share,var}. But I would probably only want to print that if a port actually failed to build.

It sounds very reasonable to check if there's anything in /usr/local when a build fails, and then add the error message suggesting the user temporarily move /usr/local, clean the broken port (not necessarily the one they were installing) and make again.
