Robert, Thanks for the follow-up. Sorry about the delay in getting back to you. It was getting late and I had to get some sleep to be at work in morning and wasn't able to get back to this until today.
I thought I had read something stating that Fink will not support Xcode 4 until Lion is released. That was one of the reasons I chose not to upgrade. The output of: arch; gcc -dumpmachine; fink -V | head -n 2i386 is: i686-apple-darwin10 Package manager version: 0.30.1 Distribution version: selfupdate-rsync Thu Jul 7 00:43:39 2011, 10.6, i386 Since I am on 10.6 I had to do a source install and those required running /sw/bin/pathsetup.sh. Neverheless I noticed that I did have to type the . /sw/bin/init.sh command during each session in Terminal before it would recognize any fink commands. But I just now redid it using those instructions you referenced in case there was a problem and have verified that the path setup command was added to the .profile file. As for enabling the unstable tree per those instructions, I had already done that. I didn't enable the unstable tree the first time I ran fink configure and so the fink list command would not even show the mpb package as being available. So I ran fink configure a second time and I enabled the unstable tree and followed it up with the commands: fink selfupdate fink selfupdate-rsync fink index -f fink scanpackages Only after that point was I able to attempt to install the package and get the error I have been having. Do I need to perform an additional step to recompile the source after making the change in fink configure? Thanks again.
