When fink installed it created the .profile for me.
There is no .bash_profile on my system.

I can't answer this one; someone with more in-depth understanding of the install mechanism may know.


So, I should create .bash_profile and put
/sw/bin/init.sh
in it? That's all that's in the .profile

That should do it.

No ... I would be surprised if that relates . .profile is fine .

.profile is fine only if none of the 'higher priority' startup scripts are present; I didn't list them, but the man page does.


It almost sounds like your gimp and abiword problems are separate from each other .
What does
which gimp
return ?

Good point. The same should be done for all the executables.

For abiword my guess would be a problem with the X11 install and the related packages . Maybe that relates to the gimp problem too .

It's definitely worth checking. It's anomalous behavior, and may well point to the real problem.
