pkgng isn’t anymore the “Next Generation” package management tool for FreeBSD but it is the “Current” once since it has replaced officially the old pkg-tools based on makefiles. The DarwinPorts took a new direction by using a real scripting language and not raw makefiles. pkgng is being ported to OS X and it seems it can already compile successfully thanks to Landon Fuller, a former member of the team guided by Jordan Hubbard which created the original DarwinPorts: <https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/commit/45cf3f3c7e5ae7253fc1a866631a81b3b4c908ae> Guido -- https://github.com/gui-dos/Guigna _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
