[Fink-beginners] Xfree86 installation help

[Kristian Almstrup]

Title: Xfree86 installation help

I'm really new to fink and can get it working properly. I installed fink with no problems and now want to install Xfree86. To start with i used dselect then i used apt-get and finally fink install commands.
Also tried to remove and reinstall as below as instructed in the faq –but with no luck.
I think i need a compiler like gcc but which one also what might cause trouble is that my Jaguar/Darwin and fink installs are on separate partitions.
Any help is very appreciated.
