My trick to having a harmonious multi-package manager system is to have a
hierarchy, in which MacPorts is where the majority of packages are built,

For example, Free Pascal. MacPorts doesn't have it. I could spend the time
creating a port, but I

It's possible to get Fink and MacPorts to work together, although I don't
recommend it. Before we had ROOT in MacPorts, my wife and I got this to
work on her machine for Particle Physics-y things. Homebrew however, does
not really work and play well with others. If you want to use it, you

I understand why installing in /usr/local can mess up macports, but macports
doesn't have everything, and most third-party software wants to go into
