My Mac is a BSD box. Why would I want to run *nix software in an
emulated environment? The whole point of Fink (and the whole
reason I like it) is that it contributes software that runs
natively on the OS that interoperates relatively seamlessly with
the native applications, and file system.
Or perhaps I'm missing the point of your comment?
