[Fink-devel] opengl-py25 and glut

I like pymol and I pay for using it, but I think it is no longer effectively open-source if it can't be readily downloaded. The current fink version of pymol is essential to me because it provides a free way of using a free electrostatics program (apbs) and there are no other alternatives, so

It is important that anyone who maintains a gfortran-dependent package tests this before it goes into fink unstable. With the ccp4 package I've been maintaining, I've found it breaks about 25% of the programs. Jack is kindly helping me find workarounds, but it is fairly safe to say it
