Fink

The Fink project is an effort to port and package open-source Unix programs to Mac OS X. Fink uses dpkg and APT (Debian's package management system), as well as its own frontend program, fink (which is implemented as a set of Perl modules).

Implementation

Fink features a binary distribution for quick and easy installation using APT, as well as a more extensive source distribution. In addition to command-line tools for handling packages, the shareware app Phynchronicity provides a GUI.

Fink can be used to install newer versions of packages installed by Mac OS X or to install packages not included in Mac OS X by Apple edict. Fink stores all its data in the directory /sw by default (though this can be changed if initially compiling fink itself from source code). This goes against the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard's recommendation to use the /usr/local prefix; the reasons given in the Fink FAQ are that other installers might overwrite Fink's files under /usr/local, and that having an entirely separate directory makes it easier to disable the binaries and libraries that Fink installs. Within Fink's directory, a FHS-like layout (/sw/bin, /sw/include, /sw/lib, etc.) is used.

    Sorry I'm Late

    by: Fink

    I need a drink, i need a drink
    so i can think of a way out
    of this mess that i'm in
    i need a smoke, who doesn't need a smoke these days
    so i can cope with the emails, the inbox
    and the wages of sin
    and it ain't even 9, in the morning
    sorry i'm late
    i need a line, i need a line
    so i can wake up after the beers and the laughter of last night
    i need a line, who doesn't need a line these days
    coz i'm tired of romancing, and i just wanna keep dancing with snow white
    and it ain't even 9 in the morning
    sorry i'm late
    i need a drink, i need a drink
    to see through the smoke and the mirrors and the secrets and lies in this town
    and i need a smoke, who doesn't need a smoke these days
    so i can make my day look pretty as she fucks me til the sun goes down
    and it's ain't even 9, in the morning
    and i'll be just fine once i get what i want
