Hi,

After having installed Fink, GTK+ and GTK+ 2 on Mac os X I still cannot 
install nessus so that it uses the grafical interface rather than the 
command line. I get the following error msg:

gtk-config could not be found : the client will not be built

Where does nessus expect the gtk-config to be located? Can I somehow 
copy it there?

Thanks Markus


 
I don't remember exactly where Fink installs gtk-config, I believe it's
under /opt somewhere.
Use "find / -name gtk-config" to locate the binary.  Once you've located it,
you need to update your PATH environment variable, for bash
"PATH=$PATH:<path to gtk-config>"

HTH
