BSD does it again (Score 3)

Is everyone stuck in Linux? It seems like nobody has used /usr/ports on a BSD machine lately. Personally, I think it's got what everyone needs, being a package system that's got the features talked about here, and it even builds from source. Now, if I'm seeing this correctly, the reason we _have_ source distributions of things is a) for the customizability of it all , b) to have the source at our disposal to do with as we please. /usr/ports allows one to do just that. Coupled with ease of use ('cd /usr/ports/category/myprogram/' 'make install'), I think we've got a winner. Too bad the linux world doesn't have that... Until then, FreeBSD and OpenBSD get my vote... c
