The ability to use pre-compiled packages depends on the default installation path (/opt/local/bin) and MacPorts being configured to use binary packages if available. You can either run /opt/local/bin/inkscape form Terminal, navigate with Finder to /opt/local/bin and double click on inkscape or create a symlink for you own convenience to have it appear in your Applications folder (ln -s /opt/local/bin/inkscape /Applications/Inkscape).
Since there is no application bundle you have to launch the main binary directly. You have not logged out and back in to your Desktop after having installed Xorg.You have installed Inkscape but not Xorg.Why do I get the message "Nothing to do!" from Inkscape? If you encounter issues with installing via MacPorts, please contact them via their their bugtracker. The MacPorts Inkscape builds are provided by MacPorts. (10.4 (Tiger) to 10.12 (Sierra) are not supported.) Ln -s /opt/local/bin/inkscape /Applications/Inkscape # not pretty, but works We also encourage the installation of Xorg via MacPorts and not the (outdated) version supplied by. This does not only save you valuable time but also avoids some issues/hickups that occur if MacPorts builds everything from source. They install MacPorts into the default location ( /opt/local/bin) and also configure important things like binary repositories so it can use pre-compiled packages and not compile everything itself when you install new software. We strongly encourage installing MacPorts via the binary installers (*.pkg) offered on their website. You are good to go if running gcc -version in Terminal gives some meaningful output. MacPorts requires a working installation of Xcode and its commandline tools, so install this first.
The instructions below are for the X11 build. We suggest sticking with the X11 build for the time being until Inkscape has fully made the transition to go native on macOS. The native Quartz build can potentially be less stable, and less well integrated into the desktop environment (e.g. Inkscape 0.92.4 is currently available via MacPorts only, both as an X11 build and as a native Quartz build.
