[Fink-users] Problems trying to upgrade fink

2007-12-02 Thread Marsh Eric
Hi folks,

I've had fink on my machine for several years now and am trying to  
bring my releases up to date. I'm getting a string of error messages.  
Can anyone give me some pointers on how to get things running again?

Catbert:apt emarsh$ fink install
/usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/3.3/cc1plus is not executable!
Information about 4428 packages read in 2 seconds.
No packages to install.
Catbert:apt emarsh$ dselect

Difficult to say what this means without knowing anything about your 
system. Are you perhaps trying to upgrade a Fink installed on Mac OSX 
10.3 directly to 10.5? I don't know if anyone has ever succeeded in 
doing this. You'll lose less time if you install a fresh Fink from scratch.

Re: [Fink-users] Terrible start

2007-12-02 Thread chainy_shadow

Sorry for the lack of details.

My OS Version: 10.4.11

I actually used this page

http://www.finkproject.org/doc/x11/run-xfree86.php#xinitrc

In order to set up the environment, and I am using Apple's X11

Do you believe is a good idea to upgrade to 10.5 in order for XDarwin to
function properly?

Thanks a lot.

 Can someone point me on the right direction?

 Sorry if this sounds complainy, I love the software, believe it

 It's hard to say, since we don't know:
 
 Your OS version
 and, if you're using an OS earlier than 10.5, what form of X11 you're
 using.
 
 Whether you're starting GNOME from the command-line.
 
 
 Your description sounds like you're on a pre-10.5 OS, using an X11
 other than Apple's, and starting GNOME from the command line.  If
 that's the case, I'll refer you to
 http://www.finkproject.org/doc/x11/run-xfree86.php#xinitrc , which has
 information about how to customize your X11 startup, including
 examples concerning running GNOME.

time 'vector' is no longer undeclared, but the error msgs are :

error: can't convert value to a vector
and :
error: can't convert between vector values of different size


(Or better _ you get through _ but I don't really hope for this..)

I'm not sure I can get much further than this for G4 problems,
somebody with a G4 machine and the corresponding builddir should
do  _  those files are generated, so on my machines they look
completely different, and they are generated in a rather
complex way...

That's probably not necessary.  What is in your ~/.xinitrc file?

Yes _ you told me, and my last msg to you et al is largely
based on that.

Here I just wanted to make sure that G. Olson's problem
was the same.

[Fink-users] Question regarding Octave on 10.5

2007-12-02 Thread Ben Abbott
I have a local octave.info that I tried to use under 10.5.

It worked fine under 10.4, but failed under 10.5. Although the build  
phase completed, I had added a make check to the BuildScript. The  
result was a panic attack :-(

   scripts/time/datevec.m .panic: Bus  
error -- stopping myself...
make[2]: *** [check] Bus error
make[1]: *** [check] Error 2

I'll try make check using 2.9.14 ... in the meantime, anyone

No [have no 10.5 yet _ still dreaming of rather upgrading to a clean  
linux...]
but send a proper bug report upstream !
(With your CrashReporter log, all specifics of your machine
and of compilers used, and any other possibly relevant data...)
