It’s pretty straightforward.  Run “fink configure”, then when you git to the question below, input a “y” instead of accepting the default value.  Go ahead and accept the defaults after that.

 This will automatically reconfigure the fink-bld user which is set up by your Fink installation.  My recollection is that sometimes an OS update will remove the group entries for special user accounts but not the user accounts themselves.
