Michael,
I do have the following installed:

i      gnome-mime-data 2.4.2-3 The GNOME MIME database
i      gnome-vfs2-ssl-dev      2.10.1-5        The GNOME virtual file- 
system libraries
i      gnome-vfs2-ssl-shlibs   2.10.1-5        The GNOME virtual file- 
system libraries

But there is no directory /sw/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules here. What I  
have is the following:
% ls -l /sw/etc/gnome-vfs*
-rw-r--r--   1 root  admin  10793 Jul  9 21:32 /sw/etc/gnome-vfs-mime- 
magic

That's all. I don't know if that helps.

But I have another idea: are there perhaps some environment variables  
that aren't set properly? If you let me know which ones I should be  
looking for, I can see if they are defined here...

Jens
