Dave,
Considering the lack of resources for fink, jumping through the hoops to get
tarballs posted
is far more painful. MacPorts has supported this approach for quite some time
now with their
svn.url/svn.revision fields. I used that approach in the MacPorts pymol package
I maintain.

ps The posted packaging doesn't trigger any warnings with -m so I assumed it
was acceptable to
code that way.

not days. Key insights are discussed in the 2010 Forrester Wave Report as
part of an in-depth evaluation of disaster recovery service providers.
Forrester found the best-in-class provider in terms of services and vision.
