Hi Rick,

I've ran the 'sudo fink selfupdate' several times. For whatever reason, I just can't seem to install glib2-dev on my mac 10.4 (tiger), I'm at a loss. All I want to do is run a simple 3dVol2Surf analysis (boo hoo). Continued assistance is greatly appreciated.

Here are the latest findings from your suggestions:
