You'll need to install via source via the following sequence of commands: 1) Install Xcode 3.1.3 2) Run the following: fink index -f fink selfupdate-rsync fink install tetex-base You can replace selfupdate-rsync with selfupdate-cvs if you prefer. And everything but "fink index -f" has a Fink Commander analog. You shouldn't need to do "fink index -f" anymore after this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
