G'day

Short Version:
------------------

I need to reinstall my OS. Is a backup of /sw sufficient. I've spent 10s of 
hours building my collection?

------------------
Long Version:
------------------

A few days ago, after doing nothing except allowing firefox to upgrade, 
gnome-terminal failed to start.
This describes it exactly: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27235

I use macports for a few things that fink does not do, or does not do well.
macports wont run and a clean install fails.

I used fink to reinstall libgnome and gnome-terminal works again, but macports 
still will not run. Clearly here be dragons.

Rather than spend ages trying to find wots-wrong I decided the Winders-way 
(just reinstall the whole OS) was the quickest.

What do I need to backup to get fink back with the least trauma

Thanks
James
