Indeed. If you look at the link to the installer page for texlive 2011,
you'll see this is mentioned (fink is also mentioned).

I took it a step further & installed texlive 2011 into $HOME/ as well as
having the Mac Port's version of texlive (reason being I needed access
to tlmgr for the project I'm currently working on).

With disk space no longer a problem these days on OS X (180GB on my
Macbook Pro as opposed to 40GBs on my Linux boxes) I decided to cover
all bases. Must say, in passing, I was very impressed with the texlive
2011 installer.

Cheers,

  Phil...
