Hi,

I am in the process of installing Trac with fink. So far I installed svn
and sqlite following the instructions at
http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/TracOnOsx with no problems.
Clearsilver, pysqlite, and Trac, however, don't seem to be available as
stable packages.

Being relatively new to fink I am a little hesitant to intall an
unstable package. Does anybody have made good or bad experience with
this way of installation? Is there a better alternative (that works with
the fink-installed components)?

In general with Fink, the only thing to worry about is if you have enough free cycles to support compiling a bunch of packages. :) You will have to switch over to having all of your fink setup running on unstable, as far as I know. This isn't a big deal, I've run unstable many times quite successfully, and you can even come back to stable later once the packages make it there. If the unstable version is reasonably up to date, I'd recommend going that way over trying to compile all those packages by hand, if you have the time to let it run unattended. They're not hard to compile by hand, but I like getting my package updates for free when I do fink update.
