I did edit sources.conf. It contains:

file:///Users/sysbh/MacPortsDev
rsync://rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default]

But whatever is in there, port dir unbound gets met the standard repository.

Albus:nsd sysbh$ port dir unbound
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports/net/unbound

So, als with

file:///Users/sysbh/MacPortsDev/macports-port
rsync://rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default]

I edited the Portfile /Users/sysbh/MacPortsDev/macports-port/net/nsd/Portfile again, set the revision to 6 and ran ’sudo port install’ while in directory /Users/sysbh/MacPortsDev/macports-port/net/nsd and this worked.

That seems to be the case.

Albus:nsd sysbh$ pwd
/Users/sysbh/MacPortsDev/macports-ports/net/nsd
Albus:nsd sysbh$ port dir
/Users/sysbh/MacPortsDev/macports-ports/net/nsd
Albus:nsd sysbh$ port dir nsd
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports/net/nsd

So, if you give the name of the port, it will use the main repository. You need to explicitly not give the name to get the local Portfile. This is somewhat surprising behaviour (for me at last) that I have to leave out the name of the thing to get the thing.

Now, the only thing I have to do is to find a way to get my local revision back to 1, before I submit the patch. I have installed

Albus:nsd sysbh$ port installed
The following ports are currently installed:
  expat @2.2.7_0 (active)
  flex @2.6.4_0 (active)
  gettext @0.19.8.1_2 (active)
  libevent @2.1.10_0 (active)
  libiconv @1.16_0 (active)
  m4 @1.4.18_2 (active)
  ncurses @6.1_0 (active)
  nsd @4.1.22_0
  nsd @4.1.22_1
  nsd @4.2.1_0
  nsd @4.2.1_1
  nsd @4.2.1_2
  nsd @4.2.1_3
  nsd @4.2.1_5
  nsd @4.2.1_6 (active)
  openssl @1.0.2s_0 (active)
  unbound @1.9.2_0
  unbound @1.9.2_1 (active)
  zlib @1.2.11_0 (active)

If my update gets accepted, that would mean it would be revision 6. Is that bad? The revisions all come from my local tinkering because I know not how to force a build without changing revision.

I also want to clean up my installed versions. So nsd becomes

  nsd @4.2.1_0
  nsd @4.2.1_1 (active)

with that last one actually the current revision 6. How do I do that?
