Bless you!

Uninstalled macports and am running ./bootstrap again. Got an error when trying 
to uninstall fink:

macbookpro1:/ mikekilmer$ fink remove --recursive daemonic xinitrc
Information about 12325 packages read in 2 seconds.
ERROR: Couldn't call apt-get, which is needed for the recursive option. Try to 
install the 'apt' Fink package (with e.g. 'fink install apt').
Failed: Purge not performed!
macbookpro1:/ mikekilmer$ fink install apt
Information about 12325 packages read in 1 seconds.
The following package will be installed or updated:
 apt
The following 3 additional packages will be installed:
 apt-shlibs dpkg tar
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Y
Setting runtime build-lock...
dpkg-deb -b /sw/src/fink.build/root-fink-buildlock-tar-1.26-3 /sw/src/fink.build
Can't exec "dpkg-deb": No such file or directory
### execution of dpkg-deb failed, exit code -1
Failed: can't create package fink-buildlock-tar-1.26-3

 so moved to /sw2 for now.

Should I send the whole content of the bootstrap output back?
