Quoting Ferren MacIntyre (Ferren.MacIntyre at nuigalway.ie):

> Anybody know anything at all about FINK as a way to put Linux on the Mac?

Coals, meet Newcastle.

The Fink project has packaged 696 packages for OS X -- but got them from 
Linux and other BSDs in the first place.  And the Fink package tool is,
in fact, good old apt-get / dpkg.

"Is it not the beauty of an asynchronous form of discussion that one can go and 
make cups of tea, floss the cat, fluff the geraniums, open the kitchen window 
and scream out it with operatic force, volume, and decorum, and then return to 
the vexed glowing letters calmer of mind and soul?" -- The Cube, forum3000.org
