Right, I forgot I was going to mention that point as well. MacPorts *does* have binary installs, as of MacPorts 2. Not all ports are built as binary packages yet, nor for all operating systems and processor architectures, but hopefully the number of available packages will increase as we sort out issues over the coming months. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
