Description (last modified by jmroot (Joshua Root))

Tried to install opendx on my system (Snow Leopard)

It installed quite a few dependencies without any problem. Then I get the following:

--->  Installing openmotif @2.3.2_2
--->  Activating openmotif @2.3.2_2
--->  Cleaning openmotif
--->  Fetching opendx
--->  Attempting to fetch dx-4.4.4.tar.gz from http://distfiles.macports.org/opendx
--->  Verifying checksum(s) for opendx
--->  Extracting opendx
--->  Applying patches to opendx
--->  Configuring opendx
--->  Building opendx
--->  Staging opendx into destroot
Warning: violation by /opt/local/dx
Warning: opendx violates the layout of the ports-filesystems!
Warning: Please fix or indicate this misbehavior (if it is intended), it will be an error in future releases!
--->  Installing opendx @4.4.4_2
--->  Activating opendx @4.4.4_2
--->  Cleaning opendx

What does this mean and do I need to fix it?

Thanks.

Please remember to preview and use WikiFormatting, fill in the Port field, and cc the maintainer.

The message means that the port installs files outside the usual places, and you would fix it by making it not do that.
