Thanks for the reply, but actually it still doesn't work. Or perhaps I misunderstood step 1): what's the "Xcode Tools"? I have the C++ compiler and tools installed, is it not sufficient to install a package from source? Below is the output of the fink selfupdate-cvs and fink install gthumb commands respectively. Does this mean that my version of fink (Package manager version: 0.27.16) is too old? If so, how to install the newest version? Guillaume ------------------------------------------------------------ [apcmc147:~] blanc% fink selfupdate-cvs Password: Please note: the command 'fink selfupdate' should be used for routine updating; you only need to use 'fink selfupdate-cvs' or 'fink selfupdate-rsync' if you are changing your update method. I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions. The 'su' command will be used to run the cvs command as the user 'blanc'. After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'. /usr/bin/su blanc -c 'cvs -q -z3 update -d -P -l' ?
