You can try that, but I still think it should be install in 
share/gnome/gnomeblog if you want to change in the ports tree too. But, if 
only on your local machine then it's fine. Don't forget to change your 
pkg-plist when you start to use two variables for example:

bin/blog_applet.py
bin/gnome-blog-poster
[...stuff in PREFIX (USE_X_PREFIX)...]

@cwd %%LOCALBASE%%
%%PYTHON_SITELIBDIR%%/gnomeblog/MetaWeblog.py
[...stuff in LOCALBASE...]

No, keep cc to freebsd-gnome. There's no secret in here.. :-) If I 
remember it correct, I believe Adam W. has created this port, so he might 
follow up this thread when he has the time to check and read his email.

No worry, I am not good at it either. ;-)

Cheers,
