Dr H:
Correct, no useful info provided, and not much more info was provided by
fink about what might have gone wrong. Considering there was 7 hours of log
notes that might have the actual error, and, since I didn't really have any
need for FF1 I closed the terminal window. I was just reporting back to
David the "outcomes" from the "try 'fink install firefox'" command . . .
beyond the fact that it wasn't 3.6 for 10.4 . . . there was "failure." But,
I'm not blaming anyone, and I don't take it personally . . . it's just one
of life's small errors . . . .
