[Fink-beginners] Clean Install Fink
HI all I have messed up my fink installation so bad I think it will just be easier to reinstall and start over, so my question is what files and where do I need to get rid of to start from scratch? I assume sw etc/X11 /Library/Receipts/Fink 0.5.2 Installer.pkg Are there any prefs, other than fink commanders that I need to toss? Invisible files etc?

[Fink-beginners] GRASS Install Problems
Hi, I am trying to install GRASS and not getting anywhere. I am using the unstable tree so i can even try to install it (sigh). The problem occurs at the beginning. It get these errors: WARNING: While resolving dependency postgresql73 (= 7.3.2-7) for package grass- 5.0.2-3, package postgresql73 was not found. WARNING: While resolving dependency postgresql73-ssl (= 7.3.2-7) for package grass-5.0.2-3, package postgresql73-ssl was not found. Failed: Can't resolve dependency postgresql73 (= 7.3.2-7) | postgresql73-ssl (= 7.3.2-7) for package grass-5.0.2-3 (no matching packages/versions found) Searching the archives led me to try installing postgresql first. But that doesn't help. It seems to want postgresql73 but I don't see how to install that - it is not listed in Fink Commander. I tried installing that from the command line, but that package was not found. BTW, postgresql installs version 7.3.3-3. Any ideas on how I can install GRASS? -Frank --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner. Refer Dedicated Servers.

That probably means that in your attempts to install and uninstall, you've removed the file, or your PATH isn't set up. 1) Do you have /usr/X11R6/bin/startx on your system? 2a) If not, what method did you last use to install XFree86? 2b) If you do have startx, what do you get from running printenv PATH?

The copy I have is dated February. It's excellent. You should be able to find it with Google. Given all your trouble, you may want to remove Fink and X and start over. Open your Terminal.app and use: sudo rm -rf /sw Return sudo rm -rf /usr/X11R6 /etc/X11 Return sudo rm -rf /Applications/XDarwin.app Return then: rm .xinitrc .cshrc Return The rm = remove and the -r and -f means recursive and forced. Once you have this accomplished you can start a brand new Fink installation from scratch. So you know, the first command gets rid of fink, the 2nd and third commands get rid of your X server, and the final command gets rid of your configuration files for X and TCSH respectively. If you then start your new installation following Fun With Fink you should have no problems. It's excellent and quite detailed on getting started. Hope you find this helpful. I'm pretty new to this myself. I have followed the directions above and it's worked for me. Oh one last thing. Note the space between X11R6 and /etc. Need to ensure that there's a space there otherwise you won't remove anything...you're actually removing 2 different directories recursively. - -- Scot Johnson | GPG Public key ID: 10AB70CE Keyserver: pgp.mit.edu Here come the people in grey, to take me away.

Re: [Fink-beginners] xDarwin
I don't know if /usr/X11R6/bin/startx is on my system. ls -la of both home and root directories didn't have it. Most recently I've tried install via the XonX installer. Before that, it was the GNU MAC installer. Before that it was via Fink. And before that--the last time it worked--it was the GNU MAC installer again.

Re: [Fink-beginners] xDarwin
I'll wait to hear what the others say about the below suggestion (although I'm pretty sure they'll agree.) However, I looked though the Fink site and was not able to find Fun With Fink. Do you have a link? On Wed, 18 Jun 2003 22:48:06 -0500, Scot Johnson wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Greg wrote: | Okay, I've slowd down. I've studied. I've read.
