Hmmm. I wasn't shouting. I was EMPHASIZING. And apparently that isn't good enough. So let me repeat. Yes Fink installed a brand-spanking new version of X11 despite telling me that it wouldn't because it already found one. As I indicated, there was an X11-Darwin app in my Application directory and X11 failed to run (there was a missing file error message in the console). I deleted all of Fink and X and developers stuff and reinstalled X11 and the developers packages just to make sure everything is clean. So that is where I stand now - a system with just Apple X11 and the developer SDKs installed. All I want to know is how can I go through this process and get Fink to work without having to mess my system up one more time. If no one has an answer I'll accept that and move on. But it is quite condescending (and uncalled for) to snootily tell someone to go look in the FAQs and documentation without relating to the specifics of what the person wrote.

AND YET IT WENT AHEAD AND INSTALLED A NEW ONE ANYWAY. Where am I at fault here?
Please don't shout. Did Fink actually _install_ XFree86, or did it just build or download a version and fail to install it? If you run "fink list -i xfree86", what do you get?
