Do you mean that Macports installed different versions of Postgres
because the other packages had different dependencies? Don't know if
compiling from source would help you there, but surely there must be
some way to tell the package manager that a certain dependency already
exists, albeit somewhere else?
Yes. Between different programing libraries to access postgresql I was
getting caught up in multiple versions of the database itself. Very
unpleasant.
