[Fink-devel] Prompting for user input.

[adam hixson]

I'm in the process of preparing a package for mpich, a portable MPI implimentation. The thing is MPI uses either rsh or ssh to do its some of its business. One or both of these need to be properly configured to be used, and instructions for configuring them can be found on the mpich website.

The thing is this. If rsh or ssh is configured _before_ the configure script is ran, then everything will just work, as apple folk seem to like to say. If it is not, then more work needs be done after the install.

I would like fink to warn a potential installer about this fact and would like to know the standard way this might be accomplished.

Forgive me if this is old hat, but this is my second package and I'm a bit raw.
