In both cases, you have to make sure you are setting up the
environment appropriately for ccp4, unique to the unix shell you are
using.

In the case of the ccp4 package you compile with the aid of the fink
script, at the start of a shell session, you, or your dot file, needs
to issue

source /sw/bin/init.sh

or

source /sw/bin/init.csh

for bash and zsh or tcsh, respectively. That in turn sources the
appropriate environment setup file in $CCP4/include.
