I followed the instructions, running the 1.2 installer, then typing
sudo port -d selfupdate
and it tells me
sudo: port: command not found
I even changed the .profile file as described below- no joy. What am I doing wrong?
Oh I am using Tiger 10.4.5, freshly installed quite recently. I haven't been messing with Fink since upgrading to Tiger.

Help please! Why doesn't it work? - Brennan Young
Answering my own question here: Having messed with this a bit, it's now clear that after/opt/local/binhas to be added to$PATH. I had done this but apparently it requires a logout before it works (and I have far too many important apps running to just log out willy nilly)Well, I just typed
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/binat the terminal, and lo! 'port' is suddenly understood. Good luck all!
