Some simulation  for non-interactive ports:
        1. try to install it with *different* prefixes.
        2. try to install it, when the underlying ports 
         (in DEPENDESES sense) living with non-standart prefixes.
        3. forgott the basic:
            try install - reinstall, make ... and so on.
