    2121Please note that this command removes all software installed using MacPorts as well as MacPorts itself.  This includes configuration files for any ports which were installed; if you need to keep them, back them up before the rm (they should be in `/opt/local/etc`).
     22
     23This command does not remove files installed to locations outside the agreed directory tree.  Thus ports that write in other places should be removed manually before removing MacPorts altogether.  This includes at least `xfig` and `transfig`, but probably other X11 ports as well.
     24
     25`sudo port uninstall xfig; sudo port uninstall transfig`
