I've never seen the point of these environments on Unix.
My vote has gone for a long time, and still goes, to fvwm2 as window
manager. It's fast and still very configurable. Between that for
windows management and my own shell scripting skills I have no need for
further functionality.
And fink works pretty good on average. I had a conflict between some
packages a while ago, but the guys on the mailing lists are very
helpful in overcoming that sort of thing.
