Description
If I read the portfile correctly, qt4-mac assumes frameworks go in ${prefix}/Library/Frameworks. It should be changed to put them in ${frameworks_dir}. The portfile is complex, so I'm not attempting to do this change myself. Changes appear to be needed both in the portfile and in patches.

That seems plausible. Looking at port contents qt4-mac, I don't see anything in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks.
So then, any port using qt4-mac that's still trying to find its frameworks in ${prefix}/Library/Frameworks or ${frameworks_dir} is in error.

Agreed.
FYI> We provide access variables in the qt4 PG. Ports using Qt4 should use those variables. If they do & we someday decide to change where Qt4 is installed, then updating dependent ports should be as simple as a rev-bump to them.
I'll look into this. I -think- that ${prefix} here might be MACPORTS_PREFIX/libexec/qt4, not just MACPORTS_PREFIX as is typical. Back when we moved qt4-mac to be in libexec/qt4, we really tried to make the variables as flexible as possible but by default all dependent on one master that defines the top level directory.
