What happened to fink?
I got some feedback about my fink blaming inside the blastwave article.
Fink is a software project on Sourceforge (Link) which ported the debian apt
mechanism to MacOS X in order to provide an easy way to install
packages. Christoph Pfisterer was the main maintainer in 2001 who did
alot of the porting work and who maintained alot of packages. When he
stepped down many of the Fink packages became unmaintained for a certain
period.
I just wanted to point out that pkgsrc is a well maintained framework
by many users over 10 years now. If you need software for your computer,
just give us a try. Hej, we even provide a security framework, proccess,
etc. For all of you who wanted to look at the news that time:
