Is there any workaround around this ?

Oh, sorry, I didn't see the no_root variant...

Resolution: invalid

comment:3 Changed 10 years ago by neverpanic (Clemens Lang)

Can we find out whether the current MacPorts installation is a non-root one and change the default_variants accordingly automatically? That would prevent this from happening to unsuspecting users.
