Does anybody know how to install evince for OS X?

I have tried so many methods:

I have downloaded and tried six different Debian packages.
I have installed Fink and to my luck, it can't find evince when i use apt-get. However, if I do fink list, there it is.
I have tried downloading the source and compiling it myself.

None of these have worked for me. Has anybody been successful with evince on a Mac?
 
I don't have to have it. But in my programming class, we use evince while on Ubuntu. I have configured everything on my MBP to allow me to do all of my work without restarting the computer and all that garbage. But for sake of similarity, I'd like to be able to use the evince command in Terminal.
 
Excuse my stubbornness, but I cannot stand virtual machines. Plus, that will eat up unnecessary memory when in use and hard disk space. :/
 
Wow. I feel pretty stupid right now. I was using sudo apt-get install evince. I got it to work by using fink install evince.
