[Freeswitch-users] freeswitch, Mavericks and MacPorts

[Mario G]

Brian, would you like me to add your make file/option to my next major OSX updates coming soon? If so, I will test any changes I make.

Terry, FYI I have no plans to do macports but have a wiki placeholder in case someone takes it on. The new script and Brian's file give you complete control over where things go unlike homebrew and will be more prominent in the next wiki updates I have been working on. I wrote the instructions to be easy for "semi-techies" which is why homebrew is featured for now.

Ports are self-contained and self-reliant in /opt/local and aren't affected by Apple updates. I might be wrong but I'd think that for a machine running freeswitch, stability is a primary concern and using another package manager that instead relies on OS components that Apple can and does change without warning would make it fragile.
