I'm probably going to be stepping on some toes here and I'd like to apologize in advance. I've managed to install the broken port by changing a couple of files and using macromedia's own package. It was a no-brainer. I don't recommend doing this by any means. I've carried out this installation for two reasons, one was for development on an internal machine that never touches the net. Second because of the sheer volume of people asking about how to do this, I was curious to see if it could be done. I've detailed the process here: http://altbit.org/?p=207 Let me say again, that this is a VERY bad idea. There are serious implications in installing this port. Modification of the port's files could probably break something that I don't completely understand as well. Use this at your own risk. One last time, I'd like to apologize for stepping on any toes, but I understand the annoyance of this port not functioning. Thank you. cmh - -- C.M.
