Error installing gnucash2.2.8 on Mac OS X 10.5.6 (Intel)

[Brian Levy]

I'm in no way a power user or even versed in OS X.  I've got 10.5.6 loaded on
an iBook and just recently found out about Fink and the terminal. Shame
Apple does not publish information about the underlying system.


I went through the udates and new sync and index, etc. and then installed
version 1.8.12 no problem and started a new company.

Fink is interesting and I think I'll keep playing with it.  With some luck
maybe at some point I'll try to mount one of the version 2s.
