Request for Root password in startup


  • Subject: Request for Root password in startup
  • From: Ariel del Aguila <email@hidden>

Every time that I open the terminal application I get the following text asking me to enter the administrator password:


My-Name-Computer:~ myusername$ sudo /sw/bin/apt-get -q0 -f install bundle-kde
Password:



I know that Fink is trying to install the KDE package automatically, and if but I choose to enter the
password or not nothing gets installed and I get to see the same text next time I open the Terminal
application again.


My questions are:
a) Where this message is coming from (what INI file causes the fink command to be executed at startup)
b) How can I disable this message



Thanks in advance for your helpful comments.
