FreeBSD's package management system is pkgng. The ports tree is NOT PACKAGE MANAGEMENT.

Apt-get is a joke, but at least it's not as horrid as port. Portage, on the other hand...

I like the concept of gobolinux, does it support 64bit yet?

Cool. Too bad it uses symlinks instead of overlayfs, and too bad it has fuckall packages. It's really neat aside from that.
Sebastian Bailey
I'd say portage. Why? It "forces" the user to decide which features a package gets and it governs the whole system. You can make Gentoo Stallman-friendly or go full NSA. It's your choice.

Christ, at least get your shit straight before you troll the apt fags. Pkg is better than apt by a long shot, in fact, pretty much anything is better than apt.

Why do retards who have no clue what yast is always pop up like this?

Ports and apt-get are two different systems that do two different things. It's like comparing apples and oranges.
apt-get is the canonical way of installing programs that are a part of the operating system itself. Everything installs to /bin and /usr/bin because it's part of the operating system itself.
The ports tree is the canonical way of conveniently installing third-party software that is NOT considered part of the operating system. Everything installs to /usr/local because it's not considered part of the operating system.

I'm not wrong. Look at where the two install their software.

apt is a package manager
ports is just a glorified shell script that downloads source code and compiles it
