I've used MacPorts (www.macports.org) and it seems quite nice (and BSD
like). One of the orignal ppl involved in FreeBSD ports was also involved
in the start of this IIUC.
I forget the name of the other big one for OSX but it seemed to be more a
Linux style pkg system. It's been a while since I tried anything other
than macports though so I probably couldn't really be more precise on that
:-)
HTH,
