Bad idea. They are normally old, install in stupid locations, are not
very well documented on what, how and where they install.

It is better (and easy enough) to install from source. Only thing you
need are the Xcode Tools from Apple. If you really need a package,
send me a mail, I have a package somewhere (8.1.3) or I can build a
8.1.4 installer package.

A very good installation tutorial is here:
