More about problems with shared libraries

[William Brower]

I haven't tried this but it may be sufficient for what you need:

myMac: fink install gsl
myMac: fink install gsl-shlibs

Also see
http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/gsl-shlibs

It's on the unstable branch so you'll need to alter the default 
/sw/etc/fink.conf file to include a line like this:

Trees: local/main stable/main stable/crypto local/bootstrap 
unstable/main unstable/crypto

Of course, this doesn't help with installation from source but maybe the 
package maintainer could offer suggestions.

Cheers,
Bill
