This happens if a user who is neither root nor owner of the Finder tries to run certain applications, usually GUI applications. You have fink's cvs package installed, right? Do you really need it? If not, remove it. Otherwise you have the choice between: - run selfupdate locally, i.e. while the Finder runs as jkfisher, or - configure fink so that selfupdate is run as root It seems fink's cvs is linked to some system framework that prevents it to be run remotely as non-root. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
