portage for Mac OS X
[ via the Gentoo Weekly News ]
The Gentoo project has ported their Portage package manager to the Mac and released Gentoo Mac OS. It will be interesting to see how this interacts with the previously announced MetaPkg project.
I've tried both fink and darwinports, and had trouble with both (mostly when trying to get a decent subversion that didn't also require me to override Apple's Python). I wonder if Gentoo Mac OS will be any better in this respect.

Tain't ports, but the SubEthaEdit guys have some packages that are installable, as does Fred Sanchez (wsanchez) on his public iDisk. I tend to use Fred's stuff, but only because I heard about it first.

It's probably a bit late, but you can get a binary version of the subversion client from Fink now. It was added in April according to the last comment on this post;

Works like a charm for me and doesn't install unnecessary versions of Python, Apache, etc.
