Sorry I misspelled Synaptics Package Manager. It comes preinstalled on
mepis linux.
Synaptics scans the entire system looks at installed packages
(compilers, system processes, applications).
It then scans the available packages on many sites and gives options to
delete or install. It also checks dependencies.

I am looking for a MacOSX package manager similar to synoptics
(linux). I want to read all the various packages that have been
installed and allow me to uninstall if desired. RPM also does this
fairly well but is not as good as debian based managers.
I have looked at fink commander and it seems it will only work with
packages it has installed. It does not find all previously installed
packages.
I have also looked at darwinports. It seems to be a command line
oriented package manager and may be my best bet.
What are your ideas.
