I am trying to install Fink on a Mac running 10.3.2 using Fink 0.6.2 Installer.pkg. I received an error message:
"Fink 0.6.2 Installer cannot be installed on this computer. A root directory /sw exists. Please see the Read Me file for update instructions, or for information on installing Fink on a separate volume." I have never installed Fink, so I am not updating. I navigated to the sw directory and the contents are: lib>libcrypto.0.9.6.dylib, libcurl.2.0.2.dylib, libcurl.2.dylib, libdl.0.dylib, libssl.0.9.6.dylib. The created date is January 2003. What I am trying to do is set up my computer to run SQL-Ledger (http://www.sql-ledger.com) using Paul Teeter's instructions (http://paulteeter.net/writing/technical/howto-sql-ledger-osx.htm). I am a Unix newbie so I am substituting the Fink installer for his Fink instructions. My question is: Can I just delete the sw folder and then run the installer? Or maybe move it, install, then add the contents back to what is installed from Fink? Thanks in advance for any suggestions, comments, or help. -john __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
