That's probably the best thing to do. As I recall, when I first installed Open Office, I let it install dlcompat, and wound up breaking my Fink installation. Your existing Fink-installed libraries shouldn't be overwritten, but you may wind up having build problems if the version of a library that Fink has is newer than what MacGimp uses. That being said, you may need to put symbolic links to your Fink-installed libraries where MacGimp expects them to be (e.g. /usr/local/lib--I'm not sure where MacGimp puts them). -- Alexander K.
