I wouldn't argue that at all. I would instead argue that MacPorts is simply not READY to serve people who use double-clickable installers. That has always been a design goal of MacPorts, but it's not there yet. It has a ways to go. It doesn't even know how many of its ports even build at a given time yet, much less have them all packaged up and ready to double click on. :-)
True, the project has yet to come of age, but I still think a directory of open source/packages for OS X could mention MacPorts for those who do need a little more flexibility/are comfortable with the Terminal. -- Paul Beard words: http://paulbeard.org/wordpress pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pdb206/ Are you trying to win an argument or solve a problem?
