Re: Frecobaldi 2 Mac OS X install guide

[Andrew Bernard]

Yes, but Mac OS X Darwin does not use apt as far as I know, only Debian 
and Debian derived systems such as Ubuntu and Mint.

As a result of this thread, I have decided the need is there for a 
macports bundle for frescobaldi, one that includes all the dependencies 
with no headaches. This seems to be what people want, short of a Mac GUI 
installed. I'll start in on that project tomorrow.
