I read that group and these posts don't belong there :o) One thing missed so far, is that FreeBSD-based Darwin (which under-pins OS X) has it's own version of packaging called bundling (which is different from fink and came from NeXT). It is quite nice. If you look around in your emacs installation you'll find a mac sub-directory and under it an Emacs.app sub-directory. This is a bundle. You can place all of the files that normal go in /usr/local under Emacs.app and you have a package. You can move it around or delete it to your hearts content. There are instructions on doing so in the mac sub-directory. Oh, and the source code for Darwin is open so it could be ported to other unices (or should that be unixen?).
