I'm a complete newbie to compiling binaries, and UNIX for that matter, so please forgive me for any ignorant questions. I'm hoping to use MacPorts to compile binary packages that can be distributed and installed on other computers. I've been practicing with hexedit. After some trial and error I've been able to compile it and it runs fine on my computer. I then tried "port pkg hexedit" which I was under the impression would give me a package that would install all the files needed to run hexedit on other computers. I created the pkg file but when I tested it on another computer, the installed binary wouldn't run. I get the impression that needed libraries are not being installed on the target computer. Can anybody point me in the right direction to accomplish my goal. Thanks in advance for any help.

Use "port mpkg" instead (includes dependencies).
