Remove disk selection dialog from MacPorts dmg

Reported by: lailoken3@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: base Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: pkg dmg installer Cc:
Port:

Description

the various scripts, dynamic libraries, &c installed by macports assume that the installation is made to the boot drive, and do not take the selected installation drive into account.

there are many places where this mistake is made. the best way to find them is probably to take an install made to the boot drive and grep for /opt/local and /Library.

I will be looking forward to this fix so I can use MacPorts!

Summary: macports selected installation locationRemove disk selection dialog from MacPorts dmg

The MacPorts dmg has to be installed into /opt/local. Build it from source if you want to install to another location.

Can we remove the disk selection dialog from the dmg?
