List only manual installed packages

[AntonioSun]

This seems to be an FAQ but I didn't find an answer using search:q=list+only+manual+installed&noquickjump=1&wiki=on

Very simple -- how to list only manual installed packages?

port installed requested seems to have list dependent packages, not just my manual installed/requested. (or my observation could be wrong)

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

port installed requested shows the ports you requested—the ones you explicitly installed. It does not include their dependencies.

If for some reason the list is inaccurate, you can correct it using the commands sudo port setrequested (to add ports to the list that are missing) or sudo port unsetrequested (to remove ports from the list that shouldn't be there).

For other questions about how to use MacPorts, writing to the ​macports-users mailing list is better. The issue tracker is for bug reports, feature requests, etc.

Depending on how old your installation is, it could have been affected by past bugs like #60648, or even predate the existence of the requested flag. Either way the fix is still to set or clear the flag on your installed ports as desired, with the commands that Ryan mentioned.
