Is there currently any development or plans to port Fink to other
platforms and operating systems then just Darwin?
Especially a port to FreeBSD seems very useful and not so difficult to
do, as MacOSX and FreeBSD have a lot of similarities.
FreeBSD already has the ports system, which leaves no compelling reason
to put Fink on it... A more interesting migration would be to Debian
GNU/Linux, because it is using the same package management tools. I
imagine the nicest benefit is being easier to install packages from
source than the current Debian tools allow. 'Course then there's
Portage... but that's for Gentoo Linux. I imagine Fink might get a
decent reception amongst the Debian folk.
