Description
The uninstall script at
http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html
fails to remove
/private/var/db/dslocal/nodes/Default/users/macports.plist /private/var/db/dslocal/nodes/Default/groups/macports.plist
which leaves user-name (macports), group (macports) and ID (typically 503) on the database causing confusion and minor inconvenience.
Users become aware of this when changing permissions in Get Info or using AppleJack etc.
Removing these 2 plist files works with Leopard and probably works with later OSs.
Correcting and testing the script should be relatively easy.
