I'm following this instruction file: http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/INSTALL.osx I'm running leopard, so I installed funk-0.27.8 from source. Now I'm trying to go through the 3rd step, installing ghostscript. Here's what I did and what I got: sepand-siassis-macbook:~ sepandee$ apt-get install ghostscript E: Could not open lock file /sw/var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/sw/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? sepand-siassis-macbook:~ sepandee$ cd / sepand-siassis-macbook:/ sepandee$ apt-get install ghostscript E: Could not open lock file /sw/var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/sw/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? sepand-siassis-macbook:/ sepandee$ What did I do wrong? Why were the permissions denied? I thought maybe running disk utility would fix it, but it didn't. Thanks Sep
