The manpage for thinkfinger is misleading, but I'm afraid you're all simply wrong. ldd `which tf-tool` clearly shows that it's linked against pam.
To enroll a new user, you simply need to run "sudo tf-tool --acquire". That will be enough in hardy to enroll a user. You do not need to copy the file to /etc, you do not need to recompile with pam support. You will need to modify pam.conf to use thinkfinger however. This is in the documentation already.
