I'll treat Darwin as a synonym for Mac OS X then. > I think what you're referring to is OpenDarwin? I think so. But really I meant that when OS X came out, there was Darwin which in theory was open source and then there was some mac stuff on top. So sort-of-open Darwin + proprietary mac-stuff = Mac OS X It's not clear to me that the build tools we are using are available for or work on Darwin w/o mac-stuff, so I think that in a real sense pkgsrc for Darwin supports Mac OS X only, even though uname -s is Darwin. If anyone has run pkgsrc recently on a Darwin system that isn't OS X, that would be interesting to hear about.
