#66451 new defect

Link to Micropolis should be added to /Applications/MacPorts folder

Description (last modified by programmingkidx)

Currently the game Micropolis is installed to /opt/local/bin. This makes finding the game hard for the average user. I suggest a link to this game be added to the /Applications/MacPorts folder like other games installed using MacPorts.

/Applications/MacPorts should typically contain only macOS GUI applications. Micropolis isn't; it's an X11 application. However we have at times allowed X11 applications into the /Applications/MacPorts folder, so perhaps it can be done here.

Users are expected to use the port contents command to find out what a port installed.
