May want to save a copy of output of

port list requested

to make it easy to restore if it all goes South. When I'm migrating, I take that list and turn it into an install script.

I believe that if I make a copy of /opt/local that gives me everything I need to recover if I find myself with a non-working setup after this process.  Is that right, or are there other directories I should backup as well?
