Success: Run '. /sw/bin/init.sh' to set up this terminal session environment to use Fink. To make the software installed by Fink available in all of your future terminal shells, add '. /sw/bin/init.sh' to the init script '.profile' or '.bash_profile' in your home directory. The program /sw/bin/pathsetup.sh can help with this. Enjoy. I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to install python, though. Also not sure if there is a relationship between homebrew and fink and whether they are compatible with one another of not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7.
