#1) What's your Fink version and what selfupdate method you're using? fink -V tells you that #2) Which gd2/automake1.11 versions are you trying to install? fink info gd2 and fink info automake1.11 will tell you that #3) That 'configure: error' message showed up during the build of which package? You've trimmed too much of the output, I'm afraid. It's wise to show the output from the last command that seemed to work down to the line 'Failed: phase compiling: xxx-nnn failed', which tells what's the relevant package name (xxx) and version (nnn). For what it's worth, I've been able to install gd2-2.0.35-5 + automake1.11-1.11-2 on my 10.5 box. Cheers, -- monipol http://finkers.wordpress.com Submitting a Fink bug report?
