For quite a while I've been having problems upgrading and
uninstalling imagemagick (I'm on Leopard but things on Tiger where
the same). I just did
port uninstall imagemagick
and it no longer appears listed as installed. However, if I
manually browse the bin/, lib/ etc. directories, the files are
still there and usable. Indeed, if I now do
port install imagemagick
I get the message (after things are compiled and ready to install
again) that animate, etc are still there. In the past, when
upgrading imagemagick, the process always stopped at the
installation phase because the issued uninstall didn't really
uninstall the older files. I would then have to use -f option to
force the install, which indeed worked but would otherwise also
leave the old files around (with an added suffix .mp_somenumber).
I would then have to manually erase them which is a tedious task.
I've been using macports for a long time but never experienced this
behavior before with other ports. Could someone fix this, please?
Port names are case-sensitive. You needed to have typed:
port uninstall ImageMagick
or, in the case of upgrading:
port upgrade ImageMagick
