[Fink-users] Problems trying to upgrade fink
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 /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/3.3/cc1plus is not executable!

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. -- Martin - SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.

Re: [Fink-users] Terrible start
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. __ Chäïnÿ Alexander K. Hansen-2 wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 chainy_shadow wrote: The software is great, but how come it's so messy on the start?
