the Fink installer as user who doesn't have administrative privileges. 
Make sure to log in at the login screen as such a user or switch to such 
a user in the Finder (i.e. fast user switching) before starting the Fink 
installer.</p>

+      </question>
+      <answer>
+        <p>This is caused by an apparent bug in Tiger's dynamic linker

name of you want as follows:

Application Menu in Apple's X11 as well as a terminal.</p>
