Here is a short recipe:

1. Try to identify the *first* error message in the output. It can be 
indicated by the word "error", but this isn't necessarily so. It depends 
of who is talking. If it's the compiler, then any message that is not 
marked as "warning" is an error message.

2. Show everything from the beginning of the last command that was 
executed before the error, up to the error.

3. Show the end of the output with the package name and version.

And don't forget your fink version and OSX version.
