Description
for Linux users on OSX, the appearance of MacPorts were amazing - the issue is i'm having problems on doing 'sudo port install' - as i could understand is MacPorts uses only source files on their repositories, while the problem i'm having is with gcc - this problem would be easily solved if binary packages would be available, a bit like Ubuntu/Debian repositories - no many Linux users thinks Gentoo is easy to use, and this issue about only having source packages available makes MacPort looks more like Gentoo than Ubuntu... :(
