jpeg: /opt/local/bin/cjpeg already exists and does not belong to a registered port

[Kelly.Morgen@…]

I'm a totally newbie here, just trying to install Wine on my Mac OSX version 10.5.8. Everything was installing fine, until I hit the following:

I have no idea what to do next... I think I accidentally installed the jpeg earlier... can you tell me how to delete it so it can be reinstalled in Wine? Or whatever I need to do? thanks so much.

Sounds like a case of ProblemHotlist (except with jpeg instead of expat).

Please remember to cc the maintainer.

You only have two choices (well, three if you count giving up and not installing): remove the conflicting files, or use -f when you activate (which will rename the existing files).

Thank you so much! This solved my problem completely, and I was able to successfully install Wine. Not that it will actually let me play Escape from Monkey Island, but that's a different problem involved 16bitDOS not supported. Sigh.
