Davy, thank you so much. I got this error:
Unpacking leo (from leo_5.0-1_Fink.deb) ... /sw/bin/dpkg-deb: file `leo_5.0-1_Fink.deb' contains ununderstood data member data.tar.xz , giving up dpkg(49543,0x7fff7e7fe300) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fff58a53d90: pointer being freed was not allocated *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug I'll follow up on mime and desktop launchers, as I don't know yet. A little worried because I already have a problem (unrelated to this) where if I try to "Open with" and click on "always open with" my system doesn't register that file association. I think the main deal with most installs on Mac OSX is to put the app in /Applications . For fink, in /sw/Applications or /sw/bin Installation packages (other than fink and its apt-get approach) literally have the style of an archive that you open with an application folder and a virtual link to the system /Application directory in it, and the install instructions are simply to drag the application icon to the /Application directory. That generally just puts the app in a standard location in the Apple Finder app, where most apps are launched from (other than the fink apps which launch from a bash prompt). One can drag from there to the desktop if one wants a desktop launcher, or into the popup application launcher at the bottom of the Mac OSX desktop interface. This is standard for Mac apps, and you don't get a lot of desktop launchers from installing apps. Other apps do have an installation app that you double click on in the archive that behaves much like say a .msi install. Given how fink apps generally work on Mac, maybe you don't need to bother with Desktop launchers, just apt-get and then one just types "leo" at the bash prompt. So I will follow up after searching for instructions on creating a "shortcut" icon for a fink app and how to set mime file associations.
