Fink

by a lot of people.

Free
Current Version: If your using it, use the application to find out.
Fink is a generic software package manager for Mac OS X. It is intended to be a command-line tool, but has been made easier to use by the average user by Fink Commander. It or the i-Installer version of TeX is required with TeXShop, iTeXMac, and TeXTools and may also be used by OzTeX instead of its built in TeX. You may need to install the Apple Development Tools (ADTs) for OSX. Fink now supports binary installations (in addition to the ability to compile everything for you), so you may be able to get away without the ADTs. See the FINK pages for more information.

i-Installer

Free - Donations Requested
Current Version: If your using it, use the application to find out.
i-Installer is a generic software install and configuration tool for Mac OS X. i-Installer can be used to install TeX Live and teTeX for your TeX applications (everything you would see on a Unix build), Ghost-Script, as well as a growing number of other utilities. It or Fink is required with TeXShop, iTeXMac, and TeXTools and may also be used by OzTeX instead of its built in TeX. Gerben also provides the original TeXGSInstaller on his web site, but you're really missing out on a lot of goodies if you don't use the TeX i-Installer.
