Edit /Users/deane/.bashrc and /Users/deane/.bash_profile; TextEdit works fine for this, but you'll have to type in the file names because Finder ignores them.

Find all instances of PATH= and remove /sw/bin and sw/sbin from all of them. Save the files.

If you have any Terminal sessions open, close them and open new ones. `echo $PATH` should now return /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

To get rid of the old Fink installation. Try gnc-fq-update again.

Depending on where the MacPorts installation came from and how up-to-date it is, that might cause failures too. If you get the same "wrong processor type" for paths in /opt/local, repeat the above procedure to remove /opt/local/bin and /opt/local/sbin from $PATH, then remove /opt/local.

If you get some other error that you can't figure out, post it here.
