Yeah, you're absolutely correct about the different approaches thing. I was just throwing in my two cents since I've spent a lot of time thinking about how software installation is done in general, and on Mac clients in particular, in the last several years. I prefer the stow approach because it lets me do the same thing for Ruby, Perl, Python (I need all three daily :( ) as well as other software I acquire or write, without needing to really learn the vagaries of RVM and the like. I didn't mean to derail the conversation away from your documentation, sorry about that. On 12-01-12 2:24 PM, Carlos Perez wrote:
I think they do not cooperate because they have 2 way different approaches, I personally prefer brew since it does not fill my drive with several copies of libraries that I may already have. I think it is more of personal preference, that is why I will include both. Will have to play with stow, I have lived in the ruby world with RVM and in Python with pythonbrew, I will look in to perl this year.

The lack of cooperation between MacPorts and Brew is why I avoid Brew; I prefer not to have things besides me take over /usr/local. I also have started using stow to manage ~/pkg for things like interpreters - I'm not fond of the way any package manager tends to interact with gems, CPAN, etc etc. Mike On 12-01-12 11:04 AM, Carlos Perez wrote:SL has the proper GCC so no need there. I will install macports and write a section for that if the person prefers macports, also on ports I belive you can install gcc I belive they added that recently. Installing SL VM to write a guide specific for that one. On Jan 12, 2012, at 11:48 AM, Larry Pesce wrote:Carlos, I know you love homebrew but I had issues... Homebrew does not like he fact that I have MacPorts installed, and I'm sorta stuck with it at this point... I also had issues right out of the gate with the install of gcc. I don't recall the error. Might have something to do with the fact I'm still on Snow Leopard.

I would like to make sure it works for everyone before putting it on my page so I included the PDF on the procedure. Working on adding setting up armitage for collaboration also.
