That should have been

fink --logfile=$HOME/glib2.log build glib2-shlibs

Sorry about that.

Yes, it does, just not command-C and command-V.

Probably not.  Building by hand doesn't typically mean anything when 
comparing with Fink builds unless you explicitly set all of the 
parameters the same way.  This is not the case by default.  What you're 
seeing is probably the result of your not having explicitly told glib2 
how to get to the gettext headers and libraries.

In the vast majority of cases, people who remove Fink and reinstall it 
to try to solve a problem get the _same_ problem again because it is due 
to something outside of Fink which didn't get changed.

Just try

fink --logfile=$HOME/glib2.log build glib2-shlibs

and get the output from a _Fink_ build.
