Title: Extreme Newbie Help
Hi, I’m running Mac OS X 10.1.5 and am trying to get Gimp running on my machine. I’m using a 400MHz TiBook. I’m following the instructions given at homepage.mac.com/rgriff/xdarwin.html
I’ve gotten Xdarwin and Fink running but can’t go any further because apparently I’m missing some files. When I do apt-get update I get this for an output:
[localhost:~] shawn% sudo apt-get update

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
This is my third try with the same results. After the second try I installed the Dev Tools that came with OSX because that is listed as a requirement but it didn’t change anything.
