One Weird Trick To Simplify Package Management, Amitai Schlair

Abstract

Do you use ports on BSD, Homebrew on OS X, and RPM (or whatever) on
Linux? Stop wasting your time and effort. This talk will tell you why --
and show you how -- to start using pkgsrc to manage third-party software
in the same way on every computer you'll ever have.

Speaker Bio

Amitai Schlair is a software developer and Agile coach at Morgan
Stanley, a board member of The NetBSD Foundation, a non-award-winning
musician, and an award-winning bad poet. In his copious free time, he
hacks on pkgsrc and ikiwiki.
