man, what's wrong with fink?
and yes, it depends on x11/gtk/etc. fink makes life easy. 'fink install nicotine'.

you mean 'sw'?
and you can tell it to install to /usr/local/ if you want. seriously, it makes life really bloody easy. i'm not sure why you're opposed to it.
they'll make a version when the author gets time; porting things to cocoa isn't a straight forward operation. i'd prefer a cocoa client too, but x11 works well.

if you want bsd/linux tools, you want it. if you don't, you probably don't care.
for me, it's essential.

Hey xf, have you changed over to using museek? Despite what people say, it does indeed work on OS X, with a bit of fudging to get everything to compile.

I didn't have to reformat when I upgraded to 10.3 ...
Using fink actually makes the process much easier and less dangerous than it would be otherwise.

hmm. i tired o install all of the above exxcept museek. damn it, when i installed fink ( i think? ) it took something like ten hours to finish, and when it was "complete" it said somehting about missing some vital part of the install which only works if installed in order or something. damn, i really gave it a shot but got nothing. i followed a step by step guide when i tried, but to no avail! i need nerdier friends i guess.

"fink" is a software package that makes it easier to install/use open source linux/unix applications on Mac OS X.
