Hi, I am using OSX 10.11.3, and want to use the app Fontforge in combination 
with the app Potrace (it allows auto tracing from within Fontforge).
I used to run it on an old OS but now upgraded my Mac with 10.11 and installed 
Fink 0.39.3, uploaded Fontforge and Potrace. So far so good. 
I am trying to get Fontforge running via Terminal: ~ waltervr$ fontforge
and run into a problem with Pango:

Based on source from git with hash: 
no xdefs_filename!
TESTING: getPixmapDir:/sw/share/fontforge/pixmaps
TESTING: getShareDir:/sw/share/fontforge
TESTING: GResourceProgramDir:/sw/bin
trying default theme:/sw/share/fontforge/pixmaps/resources
fontforge.hasUserInterface!
PyFF_onAppClosing() cnt:1

(process:3020): Pango-CRITICAL **: No modules found:
No builtin or dynamically loaded modules were found.
PangoFc will not work correctly.
This probably means there was an error in the creation of:
  '/sw/lib/pango-ft219/etc/pango/pango.modules'
You should create this file by running:
  pango-querymodules > '/sw/lib/pango-ft219/etc/pango/pango.modules'
Fontconfig warning: "/sw/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading 
configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

(process:3020): Pango-WARNING **: failed to choose a font, expect ugly output. 
engine-type='PangoRenderFc', script='latin'

(process:3020): Pango-WARNING **: failed to choose a font, expect ugly output. 
engine-type='PangoRenderFc', script='common'

I fond some posts with same problem but not one with a solution I can 
understand. 
see:  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.macosx.fink.user/39784
I did try to run:  pango-querymodules > 
'/sw/lib/pango-ft219/etc/pango/pango.modules'
return: -bash: /sw/lib/pango-ft219/etc/pango/pango.modules: No such file or 
directory

Being a novice with running Linux apps via Terminal: how to solve this?

Many thanks for your time :)
