I have completely the opposite experience; brew would screw something up every other time I upgraded a package, and didn't cross OS updates very well at all. MacPorts has been rock-solid, possibly because it is more careful about making sure that ports have exactly the right deps.
- havernator 6y agoWeird. Macports is the one I was always having to edit packages for to un-break them, with a totally normal installation. Seemed like their packages were poorly-maintained. Must have gotten better I guess.
- kergonath 6y agoI think this might have changed a bit over the years. I can’t remember last time I had to tinker to build a port. But you’re right, it wasn’t uncommon around 2010.
