mapnik/mapnik — Issue #989: Seeking guidelines on mac installation

Mac installation of mapnik seems a bit challenging. For instance, when I tried the second step,
curl -Lsf http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/tarball/master | tar xz --strip 1 -C/usr/local
from
https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/wiki/MacInstallation_Homebrew
I got a slew of " No such file or directory" messages.

I'm seeking guidance on a least-pain mac install.

(or would it somehow be easier if I got a chromebook?)

Also, I see
http://dbsgeo.com/downloads/#mapnik-2.0.0
"Mapnik 2.0.0 release will be posted any moment now... "

Does "any moment" mean some time this weekend?
