Re: MacPorts-2.0.3 can’t be installed on this computer.

[Kristen McQuinn]

I moved my opt/local directory to opt/local-2012 as suggested.

The new version of MacPorts installed corrected and I have been able to
port the program that I needed. It installed successfully.

Thank you!

I upgrade the XCode installation when I upgraded to snow leopard. I am
assuming I don't need to re-install XCode?
