How about http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/users-guide/packages.php -- the headings do say Binary | Source in them.
Yeah, I eventually saw that. What happened was I started reading that page, got totally bewildered by the first two sections (on X11 and dselect), then went back to the table of contents where I saw that there was a whole page (6) on controlling Fink from the command line. At the time I naively assumed that the "fink" command could be used to access any of Fink's capabilities. To tell you the truth, I'm still not real clear on the difference between Fink ("a distribution of Unix Open Source software for Mac OS X and Darwin") and fink (a unix command that seems to control some, but not all, of the elements of Fink). There wasn't much (just the word "build", which I interpreted too broadly) in chapter 6 to tip me off to the fact that "fink install" was ONLY for installing from source. Perhaps chapter 6 should also cover apt-get?
