It looks similar.  I’m out of ideas :-( .

I’ve got a quick idea you might try first.
Try using “fink reinstall tar dpkg” to reinstall tar and dpkg from their 
archives on your system, if present, and then try another build.  That could 
_potentially_ fix the issue if it so happens that a file has become corrupted. 
It might also give us an additional data point if you get a similar failure.
You might also go ahead and try adding a user account without doing anything to 
your Fink tree yet,  and then log in and run /sw/bin/pathsetup.sh on that 
account.  I don’t have high hopes for this, since almost everything that Fink 
does is run either as root or as the fink-bld unprivileged user, but it’s a 
relatively quick thing to try.
If you do go with the archive and reinstall option, and it finishes 
successfully, and the selfupdate process doesn’t actually update any packages 
(unlikely), then try to install a package.  If that doesn’t work, or if you 
aren’t able to do the install,  then the issue is probably somewhere in your 
system area.


I have tried all suggestions without success. Is it time to give up?



Unfortunately, it may be.  I think we’ve been able to rule out anything 
internal to the Fink distribution.  Maybe a final check on the permissions?

Those look reasonable to me.  Is there anything out of the ordinary about your 
setup, like having /sw on a symlinked external volume?

No, /sw is at its usual place on my only HD "Macintosh HD".




Ah.  We’ve historically had issues with Fink on external drives or network 
shares, and their behavior can change via mount options, so I figured that was 
something to look for.

What happens if you run the command manually at a shell prompt:

$ sudo dpkg-deb -b 
/sw/src/fink.build/root-fink-buildlock-libsamplerate0-0.1.9-1 /sw/src/fink.build

?

Do you get the same error?


Yes, the same error.

Ah.  We’ve historically had issues with Fink on external drives or network 
shares, and their behavior can change via mount options, so I figured that was 
something to look for.

What happens if you run the command manually at a shell prompt:

$ sudo dpkg-deb -b 
/sw/src/fink.build/root-fink-buildlock-libsamplerate0-0.1.9-1 /sw/src/fink.build

?

Do you get the same error?

Those look reasonable to me.  Is there anything out of the ordinary about your 
setup, like having /sw on a symlinked external volume?


No, /sw is at its usual place on my only HD "Macintosh HD".

so the permission are correct?

Check your disk space.  If your disk isn’t full, try doing a build as root (e.g. 
“fink --no-build-as-nobody build ” ).  If that works then it might be 
that there is something wrong with the fink-bld user/group which normally does our 
builds.  If you you get the same error when building as root, we’ll have to diagnose 
it further.

I get the same error with "--no-build-as-nobody build "

Then it sounds like whatever command creates the control file isn’t behaving 
properly.  I (or somebody else) will have to dig into the fink code when I’ve

Could you send the output of  ls-lR

other root-fink-buildlock directory if that’s what you have available)?   In 
digging in the code, it looks like there should be an error message if the 
control file isn’t initially being written, so the issue might be elsewhere.

Could you send the output of  ls-lR 
/sw/src/fink.build/root-fink-buildlock-libsamplerate0-0.1.9-1 (or use some 
other root-fink-buildlock directory if that’s what you have available)?   In 
digging in the code, it looks like there should be an error message if the 
control file isn’t initially being written, so the issue might be elsewhere.

 We haven’t done anything to change the internals of how the buildlock 
 system works, either.  That’s what’s failing here, because the control 
 file isn’t being created.  You’re sure that you literally have changed 
 _nothing_?  You didn’t install any third-party software at all?  The only 
 reasons I can think of for this to have worked at one point and then to 
 fail would be:
 1) Changing the behavior of a system utility, e.g. by having a third-party 
 executable of the same name but with different behavior.
 2) No disk space.
 3) Incorrect permissions in the fink.build directory that somehow don’t 
 allow the control file to be created.

Then it sounds like whatever command creates the control file isn’t behaving 
properly.  I (or somebody else) will have to dig into the fink code when I’ve 
got a moment to see about a test case.

Check your disk space.  If your disk isn’t full, try doing a build as root (e.g. 
“fink --no-build-as-nobody build ” ).  If that works then it might be 
that there is something wrong with the fink-bld user/group which normally does our 
builds.  If you you get the same error when building as root, we’ll have to diagnose 
it further.

I get the same error with "--no-build-as-nobody build "

You’re sure that you literally have changed _nothing_?  You didn’t install any 
third-party software at all?  The only reasons I can think of for this to have 
worked at one point and then to fail would be:

You’re sure that you literally have changed _nothing_?  You didn’t install any 
third-party software at all?  The only reasons I can think of for this to have
