And who has the time or the Mac to perform this task, which can take days 
because some packages cannot be compiled in parallel make jobs? And who has 
such a big external disk left over? (And I am not mentioning the cost of 
electrical energy.)

And there more problems: some packages are mutually exclusive, some depend on 
old software, so Fink is asking questions all the while to remove or to install 
packages. This task needs some dedication.
