How do most fink developers have their permissions configured, and do they run with admin privileges? I am currently running my doug account as admin, but that seems a little spooky and I'd rather not (though on Windows XP you pretty much get used to running as admin because stuff just doesn't work or is very inconvenient if you don't).
I am happy to use sudo if that’s what everyone does.

I think you're right. I probably still type it from way back in the day when it didn't automatically. Plus, it doesn't hurt to be explicit about it. > Also, couldn't Doug just use 'sudo pico xxx.info' and then not have to > change permissions on /sw? I suppose, but then you have to type sudo everytime you want to edit the file. User preference, I suppose.
