Hey Simon
Thanks for your report. Frankly, I didn't test on OS X yet.

What arguments did you give to [comport]?
creating a [comport] works…also opening the help patch works.
The help patch uses a [comport 1 9600]. Can you successfully create this? I'm wondering whether your problem is related to that fact that you specify arguments at all or rather if it has a problem with specifically those values you want to use. What device is it on the port you specify?
i had comport v0.0. extended installed before if it matters, but it seems deken overwrites the files automagically if the folder name is the same…
I _think_ downloading a package always overwrites any previously installed packages with the same name [1].
Does the same happen with the v0.0-extended version?

[1] Actually, Deken just extracts the archive over the existing folder, which means that any files in the destination folder not part of the archive will remain there. Don't get fooled by the file VERSION.txt which shows 1.1 after you installed comport v0.0-extended.
