I searched the docs, the list's archive and stackexchange amongst other sources 
for sort of a best practice for running macports along with homebrew, to no 
avail.

From those I gathered that the only problem one could run into, it seems, would 
be at build time — hence some advise on changing the PATH possibly with a 
script while building or upgrading.

Besides missing ports and updated versions, what appeals to me from homebrew is 
cask (I have to read its documentation though), which could even install 
macports. What it doesn't: ruby, learning the peculiarities of another package 
manager and the whole Schraderbräu lingo.

Is anyone actually using both package managers that could advise on a best way 
to run them together?
