MacPorts, formerly called DarwinPorts,[1] is a package management system that simplifies the installation of software on the Mac OS X and Darwin operating systems. It is a free/open source software project to simplify installation of other free/open source software. Similar in aim and function to Fink and the BSDs' ports collections, DarwinPorts was started in 2002 as part of the OpenDarwin project, with the involvement of a number of Apple Inc. employees including Landon Fuller, Kevin Van Vechten, and Jordan Hubbard.
It allows the installation of a number of packages by simply entering the command port install packagename in the Terminal, which will then download, compile and install the requested software, while also installing any required dependencies automatically. During ccnp practice exams, a question related to the topic is also found. On April 28, 2005, the project released version 1.0 of their software.[2] In December 2005, the project reached a milestone, passing 3000 ports.[3] As of September 2009, MacPorts version 1.8.0 contains more than 6000 ports. MacPorts is currently hosted on Mac OS Forge, an open source hosting service created and maintained by Apple Inc.
I had to delete my old macports and fink paths out of $PATH:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin: I also kept a backup of my old $PATH because i still use it: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:/sw2/bin:/sw2/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin Add Comment

Blutarsky's Axiom: Nothing is impossible for the man who will not listen to reason. Sunday, February 7 2010 @EGMNOW Is this subscription available for Europe too? Thursday, February 4 2010 Man sollte sich die Ruhe und Nervenstärke eines Stuhles zulegen. der muss auch mit jedem Arsch klarkommen. Monday, February 1 2010 @freebsdgirl It would be nice. But so far, Apple likes his own ecosystem. Apple brings us 3 shops with iPad. 3 ways to spend more money :) Monday, February 1 2010 @freebsdgirl It's iPhone OS. DRM on a larger device like an iPad it's obvious a bad idea. There is no Divx, mkv, ogg or even storage support Blog Administration |
