How can I get gnome to treat my account as though I've never run it before and

Hello
Has anyone got ViewCVS working with fink installed svn and apache2?
I had it working a week and a half ago, but it now seems to have broken
giving version mismatch errors. I'm using the cvs version of ViewCVS.
Basically if I edit the viewcvs.cgi script to point to /sw/bin/python it
gives
/IfModule
So that it now finds the swig bindings for svn.
As far as I can tell this uses Apple's python install with fink
installed python modules - which sounds dodgy but works for now.

It turns out OpenOffice looks for libfreetype in /usr/X11R6/lib, so
there is no need to symlink it in /usr/local/lib, it also appears that
installing Apple's X11 and Fink plus a few apps (gnucash, gnumeric) is
sufficient to have libfreetype in /usr/X11R6/lib, though I'm not sure
which actually
For the record:
After following the tips suggested by Alexander and Viktor and reading
the OpenOffice docs here's what I did:

sudo ln -s /sw/lib/libdl.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/libdl.0.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libdl.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib
Similarly for fondu:

I'm thinking of taking a look at the OSX version of OpenOffice, since
I'm already using fink with Apple's X11 there should be no conflict
there. And OpenOffice looks like it will not interfere with fink at
all, but are there any known catches or problems?
thanks

2) It wants to install ESP ghostscript. This won't interfere
directly with your fink-installed ghostscript, though.
Yeah, but what about my gimp-print installed ghostscript? :)
Clearly I'll have to tread very carefully here. Thanks for the tips.
