I just made the move from 10.4 to 10.5, and I'm having all sorts of problems
with X11 and Fink on both my Powerbook and my i386 desktop.

For the Powerbook, the very first thing I did after installing the Xcode Tools
(which took forever) was to install fink and then try to install the fileutils
package and my favourite editor, vim.

In an xterm window, just using ls gave me the following error:

dyld: Library not loaded: /sw/lib/libintl.1.dylib
  Referenced from: /sw/bin/ls
  Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

and when I tried opening up gvim, I got something similar:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.dylib
  Referenced from: /sw/bin/gvim
  Reason: Incompatible library version: gvim requires version 4.0.0 or later,
but libXrandr.2.dylib provides version 3.0.0
Trace/BPT trap

The i386 gave similar problems for 'ls' but a totally different, nasty looking
pango error when I tried to run 'gvim'.

Moreover, for the powerbook, opening up xterm made an extra X11 icon in the dock
and it didn't seem to load my .Xdefaults file.  This problem did NOT occur on
the i386.

If anyone has any suggestions, please pass them along.  I've wasted so much time
on this I'm even considering moving back to 10.4...
