macports-users Digest, Vol 77, Issue 1: Re: phinze/homebrew-cask on the same system like MacPorts

[Eric Gallager]

Sorry for the necro-bump, but the other day I decided to check up on what
was new in Homebrew-land, and it turns out that `brew cask` actually lets
you install MacPorts itself as of
https://github.com/phinze/homebrew-cask/commit/9ab24161369f1652604f780df0e58733c11889c0

This was the pull request for it:
https://github.com/phinze/homebrew-cask/pull/1845

Do we want to support people installing MacPorts in this way?
