I originally used fink to install postgresql database.

For whatever reason, that I didn't investigate much, it never really  
worked 100%.

There are other things I need to install today that fink doesn't  
offer (ruby stuff mainly) and so I have done it from source.

My question is, at this point I figured I would just install  
postgresql from source as well, but I probably should remove the one  
fink installed.  This I can do, but I have no reason to keep fink  
around.

How do I uninstall fink and remove what it has done?

At the very least, I have created a username, postgrel, that I can't  
seem to manage (change home directory, shell).  It does not appear  
in /etc/passwd and I'm at a loss as to where it might be.  Without  
this, I can't seem to install postgres from source in the most common  
manner (username consistency).
