Easy way to install darwin ports: curl -O http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/downloads/DarwinPorts-1.3.2/DarwinPorts-1.3.2.tar.gz tar xzvf DarwinPorts-1.3.2.tar.gz cd DarwinPorts-1.3.2 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local make sudo make install cd .. After this, I still wasn't able to install ImageMagick using ports - I would get the error No index(es) found! Have you synced your source indexes? Then I found this: sudo port selfupdate Everything is magically fixed now! Hope that helps someone :) Thanks for this…
