Fink

Do you need to run free software like on Linux or Unix? Instead of compiling them all by yourself, use Fink to do this automatically and better: http://finkproject.org/

Once installed - it works like Debian Linux, using 'apt-get install' to automatically download and install your programs/application/software.

I came across Fink when trying to compile and install 'dillo'. Obviously I had a very hard time doing so under native OS X with Xcode installed. It depended on so many other software utilities, packages and libraries that I kept going around in circles!
