If you have a custom build path, Fink will warn you that this might

It's supposed to save state in fink.conf so only root can set
it...OTOH, some of those commands run as root.

No change to fink.conf even after having made it world-writeable
and re-running one of those commands.

The writing mechanism appears to check for "being root" not "file
writability", but...

(Furher, I do run many of those commands as root.)

D'oh.


Another small point: to get rid of this for the moment, I answered 'yes' once.
This added the lines
Buildpath: /sw/bld.build
Flags: SpotlightWarning
in fink.conf, and stopped the questions, but
the previous symlink /sw/bld -> /classic/bld is unchanged, as well as its target,
and a new directory /sw/bld.build has been created...

That's probbably because fink doesn't expect a symlink, but a real dir for the builddir config. It worked as advertised.
