Well, it depends on what you mean by "Linux apps". I believe Josep
was using it in a generic term to mean apps that originally came
from linux. Fink definitely does provide that.
Oh, also, fink is not just a version of the debian apt system.
Yes, it uses the .deb binary package format but it's backend
is something more akin to rpm spec files. Fink itself, however,
is better described as a source distribution. Yes, it's version
of KDE is running using an X server, but they are native OSX (but
not Aqua) apps. Ben Reed, who happens to be a coworker of mine
and a member of TriLUG (but not INW), is the KDE OSX maintainer
and explained all this to me (because I unfortunately don't have
a mac).
