I tried the last version and it did not work very well for me. I had a few bumps on the first launch of this version, but after restarting it everything seems to work perfectly. Maybe it was conflicting with some files from the last install of 2.2 that I missed when I removed it.
I've used Fink for a number of years and I decided to give MacPorts a try. It seems much less cumbersome even though it has fewer packages. PortAuthority is an excellent way to manage MacPorts and I feel that it is much more feature rich than Porticus. Porticus may be prettier and have better integration with OS X, yet it seems a bit lacking in options and I received more errors while trying to install packages. After installing a few packages in PortAuthority, I think it's a bit more robust and easier to use. If you use MacPorts and want an easy way to manage things, don't pass PortAuthority by!
