title: Fink and Homebrew - can they live together on mac osx?
body: <p>I was trying to get octave to work, and figured it needed gnuplot which needed gnuplot-nox which needed to be installed via Fink. I have usually stuck to using homebrew for my package installs. </p>
  
  <p>Are there any problems with having homebrew as your primary package manager while using Fink for installing certain specific packages? Do they ever conflict? Does it make the system unstable?</p>
