I can not figure out what it is and couldn't find anything on the internet or the archive of this list (looked back six months). On this machine, I had previously Greben's I-installer, prior to that at some point I used also Fink, and until couple of years ago I had AlphaX installed on my hard drive. Anything they have done somewhere?

Howdy,

There are remnants of your Fink distribution in your ~/.bash_profile (or ~/.profile or ~/.cshrc). See if the answer to QM03 at the MacTeX User Group site helps; <http://www.tug.org/mactex/2010/faq/#qm03>.

Good Luck,
