   Went to the FAQ and was advised to try
/sw/bin/pathsetup.sh and all
I got was a big long list of errors---'unable to read lib',
'no such
file or directory', etc.  Anyone have a clue as to what's
going on
here?  Plus,  when I download an app I don't get any single
file with
the  application name on it --just a lot of component files
which
makes me wonder what's going on with that.  These aren't
source
distributions, they're binaries.
  Would appreciate any help.

No, because a terse verbal description carries much less
information 
than a verbatim transcript of an error message. 
How about copying-and-pasting the output from whatever
problem you 
initially had, and then at least some of the output from
running 
/sw/bin/pathsetup.sh .

It's not clear what you mean here.  If you're talking about
packages 
that you've built with Fink, pretty much all of them
generate a bunch of 
component files, some of which are binaries, some of which
are not.  
Pretty much none of them generate anything resembling
application 
bundles (which are really folders with libraries,
executables, etc. in 
them).  Once again, a concrete example of what you were
looking for 
would be helpful.

In general, it's also good to provide your OS version and
architecture, 
as well as the output of "fink --version".
