Aegir on OS X: Surviving the Lion -> Mountain Lion upgrade path

Now that Apple has seen fit for our our king of the jungle to live in the mountains, we've had a chance to test how well our Aegir setup instructions survive the ascent. If you had alreay set up Aegir using our instructions when you were on Lion here are the instructions to get you past the rocky outrcrops after upgrading to Mountain Lion.

nginx / MariaDB / PHP / Aegir on Mac OS X with optional Drush 5 (works on Mountain Lion!)

Mac OS X / nginx / MariaDB / PHP / Aegir (MEMPÆ)

MEMPÆ (Mac OS X 10.7 / nginx / MariaDB / PHP / Aegir)

At Realityloop we've found Ægir to be a major time saver and great tool for deplying Drupal websites, so several months ago we started on the path to get Aegir running locally on our Mac's for development purposes, with one caveat.. using NGINX instead of Apache!
