      <p>There is a MacPorts Portfile available for Recoll 1.15.9. It

        is not in the official MacPorts tree though, but you can use it

        outside the tree anyway.</p>

      <p>The following is based on

      the <a href="http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories">

          the MacPort documentation</a>. Procedure:</p>

        <li>Install <a href="http://www.macports.org/">MacPorts</a>

          if it's not there yet.</li>

        <li>Download

          the <a href="files/macport-recoll-1.15.9.tar.gz">recoll

            Portfile tree (tar file)</a>.</li> 

        <li>Decide where you want the local port tree to leave (it's

          tiny), ie: /Users/myself/macports.</li>

        <li>Edit /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf, and insert a URL

          pointing to your local repository before the rsync one:

<pre>

    file:///Users/myself/macports

    rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports [default]

</pre>

        </li>

        <li>Extract the port tar file inside your local tree:

<pre>

    cd /Users/myself/macports

    tar xvzf /path/to/the/downloaded/macport-recoll-1.15.9.tar.gz

</pre>

        </li>

        <li>Use the MacPorts portindex

          command in the local repository's directory to create or

          update the index of the ports in your local repository:

<pre>

    cd ~/Users/myself/macports

    portindex

</pre>

          Once the local port is added to the PortIndex, it becomes

          available for searching or installation as with any other

          Portfile in the MacPorts

         tree.

        </li>

        <li>Install :) :

<pre>

    sudo port install recoll

</pre>
