Fink uses tools like dpkg and apt-get to provide powerful binary package management. You can choose whether you want to download precompiled binary packages or build everything from source.

The Fink project is a group of volunteers that works to port linux programs to run on OSX.

The program "Fink" is a command-line interface and the backend that fetches and installs the programs you choose. "Fink Commander" is a cocoa frontend to Fink that makes choosing and installing programs a pleasure.

What's New:
This release includes source and binary packages as well as a binary installer
