Hi,

I ran the ls -ld and here's the output

Apples-MacBook-Pro:/ apple$ ls -ld /opt/local/var/macports/sources/
rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  admin  68 Aug 29 11:21 /opt/local/var/macports/sources/
rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs

I checked the permissions of all directories under /opt. All directories
has the same permission drwxr-xr-x.

Please let me know your suggestions.

Regards
Vignesh
