I'm aware of "cask" being a feature of Homebrew. If that's what you're referring to, what does the feature do / what do you want MacPorts to do in regard to this? > building from HEAD, We will definitely never offer a user-facing feature for building the HEAD version of a port's code. We want to provide some level of assurance that a port will build, does not contain malware, provides a particular library version, etc.; we cannot provide those assurances if the user can request to build a version of the code that we've never tested. > LinuxPorts (analog to Linuxbrew), What does this do / what do you want this to do? > and specific ports: vagrant I see a submission for rb-vagrant; is that the same thing? https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43225 > and ELK stack for starters. Just daydreaming… I was not familiar with the term "ELK stack" but Googling leads me to believe this consists of elasticsearch, logstash and kibana. elasticsearch is in MacPorts. The submissions of logstash and kibana are here: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44824 https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44822
