Thanks, I'll consider moving to Macports. I just wanted to know what is that and how is that different from three binaries for OS X that I had downloaded before?

What advantage does the bundle have over bare bone binary executables (UNIX execs in this case)? Do they enhance my experience supplementing basic features with extra ones?
