Unless I'm misinterpreting the term "packages"?


Pygame for example, that is a pain to build right, is avaliable in macports, the same with subversion bindings and so on.

The macport version of python 2.5 and 2.6 is a framework build so it is almost the same as the default leopard python sans dtrace support and probably the same as python.org ones.

So it is just advantages in using the macports one I think :)



This is the main reason to use a packaging system like MacPorts or Fink--if you have a complicated set of libraries to build, they can streamline things. Otherwise there is no particular advantage to using them.
