I've just been setting up MacPorts and pkgsrc side-by-side and though certainly have not plumbed the depths of either, I'm finding MacPorts to work better and have more packages.

Huh, everyone I know switched to `brew` as an OSX package manager and never looked back. I've been quite happy with `brew`.

Never really understood the appeal of brew. I tried it several times, ended up wasting a lot of time looking for the recipes. I might be using it incorrectly.

I do enjoy using MacPorts because I can quickly search the packages from their website.

That is weird; I like brew better than macports so far. It hasn't failed me, as long as you keep everything updated.

Brew's got you covered, to find mysql for instance it's just

    $ brew search mysql

brew just seems like a less mature macports. most of the differentiating features have disappeared as brew gradually discovered the same problems that macports/fink had already learned over the past decade.
