Made for Snow Leopard! Rudix release 2010 is compiled for Snow Leopard. Whenever possible, packages are Universal Binaries, both i386 and x86_64 support, PowerPC is no longer supported.
Package based. Rudix install software as packages under the traditional /usr/local/ file system in non-intrusive fashion and it never replaces core components of Mac OS X.
Zero dependencies. Every package is self-contained and has everything it needs to work. Rudix tries its best not to add extra dependecies to anything but the native Mac OS X dynamic libraries. Whenever the packages require external dependencies, this is solved at compile time using static linkage. For the end user this translates as: install and play.
Python friendly. Python is the only language officially supported by Rudix. As a result, Rudix offers a variety of Python modules. Also, everything is made for the native Python interpreter include in Mac OS X.
