I was a long time user of Fink, another package manager for Mac. Out of 
curiosity I tried Homebrew but learned it sprinkled files in many places. Fink 
had everything in one location, so it was easy to uninstall. MacPorts is my 
preference now, due to its file management policy and excellent support. I 
appreciate the addition of the LilyPond-development port, which compiled 
without a hiccup yesterday. However, I am not planning to upgrade to Catalina 
until it is more stable and all my “essential” apps are 64-bit.

I am grateful to all those working on the licensing problem and wish them 
success.
