we need to talk about package managers on OSX, /g/

Homebrew:
PROS
plenty of support
plenty of packages
werks

CONS - can have problems upgrading after SIP changes
puts everything in /usr/local

pkgsrc:
PROS
fast

CONS
not as many packages as homebrew

Honourable mention:
Nix
PROS
clearly the best design
puts everything in /nix/

CONS
so few packages

This is how you get dependency hell.

No...do not do fucking packages.
