where does macports installs programs?

[Fabrizio Salvatore]

Hi Brandon,

I have seen several posts on using ROOT via macports and I haven't seen anyone complaining about LD_LIBRARY_PATH...

the only thing I saw was something about the libPyROOT module not available in root5, and I am just waiting to finish the installation to see if I have the same problem and then sending another cry for help! ;-)

Thanks!

Fab
