    initial v3  
    11I built an installer package from port using the following command:
    22
     3{{{
    34port pkg gv
     5}}}
    46
    5 which built a package "gv-3.5.8.pkg" and put it in the "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/
    6 file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dupdate_dports_print_gv/work"
     7which built a package "gv-3.5.8.pkg" and put it in the "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dupdate_dports_print_gv/work"
    78directory.  After installing the package by double-clicking it in the Finder and following the standard

    1113[process completed]
     14}}}

    2022Looking around, I discovered that the contents of the "/etc" directory were completely emptied except
    2123for those files installed by the "gv" package.

    25 The generated pkg file doesn't seem to be able to cope with the fact that "/etc" is actually a link to "/
