<div dir="ltr">Been using HB and MP side by side for the past year and a half...had zero problems with it. I mainly use homebrew for stuff I either can't find on MP, or that has been problematic for installation or upgrading on MP eg:emacs, sbcl, etc...I find HB to be more flexible than MP in finding and installing the formulae that I need that MP just doesn't have. That being said, I don't think there's any overlap between the formulae I've installed using HB and the ports I've installed in MP, except for ImageMagick, and a duplicate version of python37, which HB conveniently installed in /usr/local/bin/python3, so there's no conflict between HB and MP. I have a version of emacs installed with HB that works quite well with a version of gnuplot I installed on MP. The ImageMagick installed by HB is a dependency for the emacs-plus formula, and the ImageMagick installed by MP is a dependency of the Octave language. My HB is installed in /usr/local and MP is installed in /opt/local, and they seem to live peacefully side by side. I've experienced zero compatibility issues as of yet.<br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Aug 9, 2019 at 10:15 PM Dmitri Zaitsev <<a href="mailto:zaitsev@maths.tcd.ie">zaitsev@maths.tcd.ie</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div>That would interest me too but I have the opposite experience --</div><div>I left HB in the exact same (broken) state as it ended up with after using it for years (with increasingly broken experience) and MacPorts just worked for me, to the point that it installed packages that would break if installing from their official sources.</div><div><br></div>Could you illustrate by an example how the HB can affect them?<br><br>On Saturday, August 10, 2019, Mark Anderson <<a href="mailto:mark@macports.org" target="_blank">mark@macports.org</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">It's possible.
