What better alternative exists?

  Depends what sort of packages you want. I used to use it for things like local installs of server-side stuff (e.g. language runtime, database server, cache server, etc) but I've moved to using vagrant (and in turn Debian, so Apt) for those things. For dev tools such as Mercurial, Git, Autotools, etc there are first/third party .pkg installers available.
