You can start by cleaning out what you don't need: sudo apt-get clean fink cleanup sudo rm -rf /sw/src/* If you don't need Fink any more, remove /sw, but don't forget /usr/X11R6 which is 100MB, too, and /etc/X11. You might also want to remove that "source /sw/bin/init.csh" line from your shell startup script ~/.cshrc or ~/.tcshrc (I am assuming you are running tcsh, seeing you have an older computer, otherwise you would consider 600 MB as negligeable.) -- Martin --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Sleepycat Software Learn developer strategies Cisco, Motorola, Ericsson & Lucent use to deliver higher performing products faster, at low TCO. http://www.sleepycat.com/telcomwpreg.php?From=osdnemail3 ___ Fink-beginners mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-beginners

Now I find that Fink is preventing my use of a program. I followed instructions for updating it, which seemed successful, but the program still fails. In brief: how can I completely remove Fink from my system (OSX 10.2)? Thanks. __ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo!
