Oh. I guess I missed that one. However, I don't think dia will build
right now whether that's fixed or not.

How can I determine which dependency of a package requires perl 5.8.1? I'm
on Tiger, which has perl 5.8.6. I want to install dia, but the list of
packages to be installed includes perl581. I don't really want to have
multiple versions of perl hanging around, so I want to find out which
dependency wants perl 581 and then see if it can be convinced to accept
perl 586.
My output looks like this:
% fink install dia

The package 'dia' will be built and installed.
fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The
candidates:
(1) gnome-vfs2-dev: The GNOME virtual file-system libraries
(2) gnome-vfs2-ssl-dev: The GNOME virtual file-system libraries
Pick one: [2] 1
The package 'libbonoboui2-dev' will be installed.
The package 'gdk-pixbuf' will be downloaded as a binary package and
installed.
The package 'libgnome2-dev' will be installed.
The package 'libgnomeui2-dev' will be installed.
The package 'gnome-vfs2-dev' will be downloaded as a binary package and
installed.
The package 'xml-parser-pm581' will be downloaded as a binary package and
installed.
The package 'perl581-core' will be downloaded as a binary package and
installed.
The package 'libwww-pm581' will be downloaded as a binary package and

The package 'compress-zlib-pm581' will be built and installed.
The package 'uri-pm581' will be downloaded as a binary package and
installed.
The package 'html-parser-pm581' will be downloaded as a binary package and
installed.
The following package will be installed or updated:
dia
The following 11 additional packages will be installed:
compress-zlib-pm581 gdk-pixbuf gnome-vfs2-dev html-parser-pm581

libwww-pm581 perl581-core uri-pm581 xml-parser-pm581
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
============
I looked at the info files for all the packages listed above, and I can't
see an obvious reason why one of them wants perl 5.8.1.
I'm running the latest unstable fink, on OS X 10.4.1.
Thanks for your help.

If you're in a hurry, you might try modifying dia.info to use xml-
parser-pm586 instead and report your results to the maintainer.
