James,

your problems sound a little bit familiar to me. When I started building 
OOo on my Mac a few weeks ago I stepped into the same problems with fink 
and gtk+.

1. During installation of gtk+2 a got a corrupt file message too though
I do not remember if it was the same file (docbkx412.zip). Ignoring this
file had no further negative impact.

Thank you.  I thought that was what I did on the first try.

2. Though I installed gtk+2 and other available gtk+? packages I was not
able to build mozilla until I realized that what fink did install were 
only the gtk+? sources. I still had to do a 'make' and 'make install' in 
order to really install these packages on my Mac. Before doing this 
pkgconfig did not show any of the gtk+? packages in the list of 
available packages.

Interesting.  I thought that was the reason that I installed Fink in the first place.  I will look at pkgconfig and see if the files are there.  I'm assuming that pkgconfig has to be installed before installing GTK+/GTK+2.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong but this was the way for me to get
gtk+? installed properly and be able to build mozilla.

Does pkgconfig show you gtk+? in the list of available packages?

Since I've installed/deinstalled Fink and all of its associated files a few times, I might go the 'reinstall Tiger' route.

HTH,

Yes, it does.

Also, I don't like Earthlink's web mail browser, it does not include a 'quote' feature.
