OK, I see the problem. Under the 0.8.0 binay install for Tiger, /sw/bin/init.sh is owned by root:admin and has 0644 permissions. Users can't initialize environment variables because they can't run the init script. "chmod 0755 /sw/bin/init.sh" fixes this. dn ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
