Hi guys :)

Long time no e. Hope you had a good Christmas. :)

I haven't used fink for a while, but today I wanted to improve the internationalization behaviour of the terminal by installing a newer bash etc. [1], so I fired up FinkCommander and asked it to selfupdate.

It started off OK, but ran into a brick wall here:
___
Preparing to replace fink 0.24.26-31 (using .../fink_0.26.0-31_darwin- i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement fink ...
Setting up fink (0.26.0-31) ...
Checking system... i386-apple-darwin8.8.1
Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at /sw/lib/perl5/ Fink/Services.pm line 1297. Under Mac OS X 10.4.8, Fink must be bootstrapped or updated with gcc 4.0,
however, you currently have gcc (unknown version) selected. To correct
this problem, run the command:

    sudo gcc_select

You may need to install a more recent version of the Developer Tools
(Apple's XCode) to be able to do so.
/sw/bin/dpkg: error processing fink (--install):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 fink
### execution of /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 1
Failed: can't install package fink-0.26.0-31
___

My system has the most recent XCode tools. I tried running "sudo gcc_select" (shouldn't this have a value?), but:
___
clytie$ sudo gcc_select
sudo: gcc_select: command not found
___

so here I am, as usual looking puzzled.

<Clytie looks puzzled>

I read the news page on the fink website, and searched for this problem, but couldn't find anything recent.

What should I do? Your advice, as always, would be very much appreciated. :)
