MacPorts installer webpage will instruct you to add macports pkg-mngr executable file locations in the end of your PATH variable, like this : PATH= " $PATH:/opt/macports/bin:/opt/macports/sbin".bash_profile for BASH # PROMPT_COMMAND=update_terminal_cwd PS1= '\h:\W \u\$ ' PS2= '> ' PS4= '+ ' PATH= "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin" export PATH

Before MacPorts is installed, your ~/.bash_profile file (inside your home directory) may look close to like this : #.

  • download/obtain MacPorts installer dmg/pkg file, install it.
  • MacPorts was created 7yrs before homebrew. After downloading source, it can auto compile in your OS/distro to create/build trustworthy binary files.

    It can obtain source or binary or both (for most) package. It is opensource & free (3rd party) pkg-mngr (package manager) for macOS, etc, & it does not steal your usage/private data. If you use homebrew: use OPT OUT option/command,

  • Notice / WARNING / CAUTION : homebrew is opensource pkg-mngr but this tool uses Google Analytics to collect usage telemetry.
  • Homebrew was built 7yrs after MacPorts pkg-mngr (formerly known as DarwinPorts). It is opensource & free (3rd-party) pkg-mngr for macOS, etc.

    PACKET SENDER HOMEBREW VERIFICATION

    Pkg-manager tool internally includes option to use (some form of) authentication & verification for any download. Either download src/bin over secure/encrypted connection from original-author's website, OR, you must use OpenPGP/GPG/PGP based authentication to make sure downloaded src/bin is indeed actually released by actual original author. You must not download & compile & use source (src) or binary (bin) from any non-original author website or post. macOS has native pkg-mngr known as App Store, it has various or too many unfair restrictions & walls, set by macOS dev apple, does not allow various types of open-source apps, etc, So that is why sometime we need to use 3rd-party pkg-mngr. “Trust” is more important & safer & secure, than “Fast”/“Slow”. When binaries are properly compiled & built in your own OS/distro then that is more trustworthy & better, than faster & directly download (pre-built) binaries. Some (3rd-party) pkg-mngr downloads binary that is pre-built with already patched source for your OS/distro. Usually package's maintainer patches the original-source to make it suitable for compile/run in target OS/distro. Some (3rd-party) pkg-mngr by default downloads package's source (and dependencies / pre-requisites) & also auto compiles it in your OS/distro to create/build binary file(s).

    If previous steps are not possible for you, (because, “patching” requires software development, and OS/distro platform, and harwdare platform based knowledge, etc) then in such cases using 3rd-party package-manager (pkg-mngr) may be necessary for you. Compile (compilation) process builds package's binary (aka: executable), etc file(s). So your next best option is: compile the source obtained from original author/developer, after you patched the source to make it compatible & compilable for your OS/distro. If original author shares only source, then that means author wants you to compile source. (Package's source (src) code/file needs to be compiled to build package's binary/executable (bin) file⒮). So in such cases, next best option is: obtain the (src/bin) package from original author's website for your OS/distro via secure conneciton.

    But often OS/distro dev or computer MFR does not update their pre-included packages, or uses older version, or does not include option for user to obtain other/related packages (from OS/distro dev or computer MFR). Notice/CAUTION : Usually most of the time, using source (or binary) packages distributed from primary/original author/developer is much much better than next-level (aka: downstream) package distributors: like, OS/distro developer (dev), computer MFR (manufacturer), etc distributed packages, And usually most of the time OS/distro dev's or computer MFR's distributed package is better than 3rd-party Package-Manager (pkg-mngr) maintainer distributed package.
