No, I'm not since darwinports is only running 2.0.12, and while fink is up
to 2.2, neither port manager works well with each other at all, and I don't
feel like playing dueling port mechanisms. I like darwinports slightly
better from an implementation POV, but until they start working together,
I'm stuck with one or the other.
They're both about equal WRT to Ethereal, but *neither* carries Nagios,
which I have to set up the hard way anyway, so if I chose either ports
system, I'm still having to dump out of it regularly anyway.
Honestly, ports on Mac OS X are a total friggin' mess, and I don't have the
time to deal with them as a user, much less as a maintainer.
So, I'm trying to avoid the entire mess, but to do that, I need to get GTK
running, to get GTK running, I have to get Pango running...and I'm getting
the feelling that I'm going to be stuck juggling ports and manual whether I
want to or not.
