I installed fink binary and then proceeded to create .bashrc with the line source /sw/bin/bash thinking that is what one would put instead of the .tschrc recommended by the fink site since my default shell is bash. Well this does not seem to work. Can someone please tell me what I am missing? I need fink to install gimp and all the other fun things in unix environment.
if you have jaguar bash is already installed. and you should not NEED to have anything to install opensource apps. well except the developer tools.
i haven't installed anything like gimp but i would expect no great trouble compiling and installing it. don't get me wrong fink is great but compiling is something that everyone should learn.

IMHO of course.
I ported the gimp 1.0.4 to OS X 10.0 using Tenon's XTools. Nasty. Use fink. Much easier, IMHO.
Yes, that is correct. It is the .sh ending and not the .bash. I just tried to correlate the .tcsh ending suggested by the fink website with .bash since they did not state .csh. Anyhow, it works. Thanks.
