But Qt/Mac/KDE (ie this project) runs a very fine line between the type of stuff available on Fink and clearly non-Fink Mac software. It requires source from many of the same things (eg standard KDE)... It just puts them into bundles at the end of the process... <sigh> >There are plans to make opendarwin packages though. =) Must admit I haven't investigated enough in this area. Downloads "darwinports" and couldn't get it to compile stuff... Fink seemed more straight forward. Anyway as long as the compile can be automated to a great degree, I'm getting happier and happier. :)
