dnscrypt-proxy port notes: wrong and missing crucial instructions — at Initial Version

Port: dnscrypt-proxy

Description

as it currently stands, dnscrypt-proxy has the following notes:

--->  dnscrypt-proxy has the following notes:
To use this port, update your DNS server settings to point to 127.0.0.1 (in the Network Preference Pane -> Advanced... -> DNS tab)

If you are upgrading from dnscrypt-proxy 2.0.x, the configuration file has changed and you will need to modify your configuration file to  match the 2.1.x configuration file requirements.

A startup item has been generated that will aid in starting dnscrypt-proxy with launchd. It is disabled by default. Execute the following command to start it, and to cause it to launch at startup:

    sudo port load dnscrypt-proxy

Running sudo port load dnscrypt-proxy at the command line after installation though does not work.

My initial assessment was that it's because /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml (mentioned in /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dnscrypt-proxy.plist) is missing. HOWEVER, even after sudo cp /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/example-dnscrypt-proxy.toml /opt/local/share/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml, runnning sudo port load dnscrypt-proxy still does not work (I get no errors or complaints though, at the command line; and echo $? gives 0).
