It looks cool, but I wish the early adopters the best. It will be a little while before I let this near my system.

- dasil003 17y agoWhen I buy a new MBP I'm going to use this, it's pretty much perfect for my use case and I'm not much of an early adopter as far as developers go. I've tried MacPorts and Fink, but they always inevitably had some issue that made me switch back to manually compiling things to /usr/local. Homebrew seems like a very nice thin layer over manual builds. Some people maybe can't live without dependency resolution, but the lack of it is one of the main reasons that I'm confident that Homebrew is simple enough that it will help me with a lot of the mundane and annoying issues (ie. getting compile flags right for OS X, etc) without hamstringing me when I need to go outside the system.
