Fink is a better alternative, it's pretty much a port of the Debian package management system, with somewhat improved source handling. As it dumps all downloaded software in /sw, it doesn't break the base install. Very nifty. Works very well.
OS X + Fink is a greak little OS, especially if you use 10.2 with Apple's X11 server. I run that on my old Beige G3, and it's quite decent.

This may be a bit off topic, but does anyone know of a "real",
current version of FreeBSD that will run on a G3 Mac? I've looked at
both Net & OpenBSD, but I'd rather stick with one OS for all my PCs. I know, that Darwin is basically the same thing as FreeBSD and that
very little has changed...but one of the main reason I love FreeBSD
is because of the ports collection. Has anyone tried downloading the
ports collection on a Darwin system and tried building anything?
Thanks, - --Brian
