Sure. Have you ever tried to &ldquo;make&rdquo; lots of UNIX software? Once you get the architecture figured out, there's still the issue of libraries and dependencies.
This is why packages such as fink http://fink.sf.net were made. There was a good MacWorld column by Andy Ihnatko about compiling GIMP on OS X&hellip; or, rather, trying to get it compiled. Wish I could find it&hellip;

OS X is hard to figure out cause its not compatible yet with everything like Linux has been with MS Products for many moons . They are still porting over from Free BSD .

I prefer BSD but the emebedded linux kicks ass .

I want to sell my own open source OS .
