well, the dmgs i have made, doesnt require darwinport or a terminal to
install, so...

I make the dmgs out of the goodness of my heart, because i dont do build
of anything, i make darwinports - so, its just a binary of the work i
have dont with darwinports.

i had intensions about updating the binaries to the new version of
0.6.10 - i will not do so, and i have removed the dmgs at my opendarwin
page.

happy hacking, the goals you have are not the same as mine - so, i wish
you the best.
