I have a LaTeX installation via fink.  I have installed the beamer package,
which requires the pgf package.

The latest version of pgf available through stable or unstable fink is 1.01.
 This is very old.  I want to install the latest version 2.00 from
Sourceforge.

Here's what I tried:

   1. fink remove the pgf package.  (I also had to remove latex-beamer
   because it depends on pgf.)
   2. Download pgf 2.00 from Sourceforge
   3. Per the instructions in the package downloaded from Sourceforce, copy
   the contents of the directory to /sw/share/texmf-local/tex/generic/pgf.
   4. Run texhash

If I try to build the following document:

\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\title{TiKZ Libary}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\end{document}

I get the following error:
...
(/sw/share/texmf-local/tex/generic/pgf/generic/pgf/utilities/pgfutil-latex.def)
(/sw/share/texmf-local/tex/generic/pgf/generic/pgf/utilities/pgfrcs.code.tex))
(/sw/share/texmf-local/tex/generic/pgf/generic/pgf/utilities/pgffor.code.tex))
(/sw/share/texmf-local/tex/generic/pgf/generic/pgf/frontendlayer/tikz/tikz.code
.tex
! Undefined control sequence.
l.15 \usepgflibrary
                   {plothandlers}

Has any successfully been able to integrate the latest pgf version into
their fink LaTeX installation?

Bonus question, has anyone been able to do so without breaking their fink
installation of beamer.  (I don't see any virtual packages for pgf.)

Thanks.
