+= Building Recoll with macports
+
+== Install macports
+
+https://www.macports.org/install.php
+
+== Have a look at the doc about external/local packages
+
+http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories
+
+== Build Recoll
+
+- Create a directory for the local ports repository and the recoll
+  data. This could be anywhere but you do need the macports/textproc/recoll
+  directories in the path. E.g.:
+
+    mkdir -p ~/macports/textproc/recoll
+  
+- Edit /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf, and insert an URL pointing to
+  your local repository *before* the rsync one The file should look like
+  the following (replace <me> with your user name):
+
+    file:///Users/<me>/macports/
+    rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports [default]
+
+- Copy the Portfile file and the files/ subdirectory from the recoll source
+  (in packaging/macports) to   macports/textproc/recoll. e.g.: 
+
+    /Users/<me>/macports/textproc/recoll/Portfile
+    /Users/<me>/macports/textproc/recoll/files/...
+
+- Run the MacPorts portindex command in the local repository's directory to
+  create or update the local port index:
+
+    cd /Users/<me>/macports
+    portindex
+
+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,
+for example run the following to build and install recoll:
+
+    sudo port build recoll
+    sudo port install recoll

-To use/test the macports Portfile port out of the official macports tree:
-
-- Edit /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf, and insert a URL pointing to
-  your local repository before the rsync one (replace <me> with your user
-  name): 
-
-    file:///Users/<me>/macports/
-    rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports [default]
-
-Inserting before ensures it's used before the macports one.
-
-- The Portfile file should be copied under category/portname. e.g.:
-
-    /Users/<me>/macports/textproc/recoll/Portfile
-
-- After you create or update your Portfile, use the MacPorts portindex
-  command in the local repository's directory to create or update the index
-  of the ports in your local repository.
-
-    cd /Users/<me>/macports
-    portindex
