Thanks for saying that. People often tell me "why don't you just use
fink to install that?" and I can't manage to get past "*sputter* You're
joking, right??".

Every once in a long while I'll try fink if installing something isn't
going well with other methods, but generallyl, I'll avoid it like the
plague.
