Hello, I have to use Glade and I sow that I can use Fink. I followed all the istructions, and I installed Glade with Terminale writing Fink install glade. Now how I can use Glade?

Now how I can use Glade? Ciao. A couple of things: 1) if you've run fink install glade then you've installed version 0.6, which is quite old. There's a glade3 package that's version 3.6. (glade 0.6 is GTK, glade 3.6 is GTK2). Run fink list glade to check which glade packages are available on your system. You might want to enable the unstable tree to get more recent versions; please read http://finkproject.org/faq/usage-fink.php#unstable If you installed Fink using the binary installer on 10.5, you should read this too: http://www.finkproject.org/faq/upgrade-fink.php#leopard-bindist1 Choosing rsync or cvs is important to get recent packages. 2) most programs installed by Fink are located under /sw/bin. The easiest way to run a Fink-installed application is to open the Terminal and write the application name. For the glade package, the program name is glade. For the glade3 package, the program name is glade-3.

[Fink-beginners] fink install netpbm
Thank you for the continuing courteous service you provide in, no doubt, often trying circumstances. It's impressive, and certainly most helpful! On a MacBook running Mac OS X 10.5.7 I've fink-installed netpbm; but whereas fink-installing many a package (e.g. pth, gmp, jpeg, etc.) results in both a .a and a .la library file in /sw/lib, fink-installing netpbm yields a raft of .dylib's such as libnetpbm.10.dylib, libpbm.9.dylib, etc. but no libnetpbm.a (or .la) and no libpbm.a (or .la). In consequence, my ld phase fails, unable to find the netpbm library. Is there a workaround for this ? Supplementary non-fink question: where do I find a description of the various roles and distinctions between .dylib, .a, and .la files ?

It looks like netpbm(10) is set up not to create those. You might try checking with the package maintainer (fink info netpbm10), as he is the one to handle such issues. My take on this: .la files aren't libraries. They're libtool archive files which are used by libtool when linking packages up. .a files are static libraries; so executables or other libraries that need them essentially have to incorporate them into themselves. .dylib files are dynamic libraries. Executables or other libraries that need them link to them at run time. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison -- Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects ___ Fink-beginners mailing list Fink-beginners@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners

[Fink-beginners] does the Mac developers news feed not exist any more?
Not directly fink related, but perhaps somebody can help. feed://developer.apple.com/rss/topic/macosx.rss Safari could not update this feed because the source file is no longer available. Is there a new address or does the developers news feed not exist any more?

[Fink-beginners] make problems
This is the first time I've used fink. I switched to the CVS mode and installed the pioneers package (a Catan clone), and now I'm trying to compile it. But when I tell it to make I get the error make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. There are two items called Makefile.xxx and one called omf.make, but if I try to feed it these files it returns Nothing to be done for `Makefile.am'. or whatever the file is. I obviously don't know much about what I'm doing. What's the secret trick? I can't find anything about this error in the documentation or FAQ. make --help works, so I know the command is installed.
