regarding dbus error,
(error message in this mail in green color)

fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The
candidates:
(1) giflib: GIF image format handling library
(2) libungif: (obsolete) GIF image format handling library

*** WARNING ***
D-Bus starts a system and session bus on your system by default,
or a lot of stuff would break. If you don't want it to do that,
touch the file '/sw/etc/dbus-1/disable-dbus'. Be warned that many
Gnome (and other) packages will fail without D-Bus.
If you want to disable the system bus, you can run:
/sw/bin/daemonic disable dbus
