William, This sort of thing is what debian excels at...making sure that the build machine only has the necessary support libraries installed. As fink grows, we probably should be paying way more attention to the BuildConflicts for each package. Debian has the advantage of autobuilding 11+

[Fink-devel] ppc unix binaries on Macintel?

2006-02-28 Thread Jack Howarth
I am wondering if anyone with a Macintel box can answer the following question. Will Rosetta run ppc unix binaries? For example, if you download some of the prepackaged unix scientific software like Chimera, Sparky, etc, do they run under Rosetta? I understand they would have to be compiled for

Dear Powers that Be: zsh has been maintained by dmalloc. I've been informally keeping it up to date and bug-fixed on 10.4-transitional, and 4.2.6 is quite stable. zsh have just released the 4.3 series. This involves some major changes, most notably initial support for multibyte

Chris, I've asked around on the darwin x11 mailing list and so far the answers suggest the worst. From what I have heard so far, the X11.app for Macintel doesn't provide a mechanism to transparently provide the ppc X11 libraries to ppc X11 executables so they don't run. So it appears that

Chris, I had been hoping that X11.app and Rosetta would have been designed such that the X11 libs would be present in both binary formats (intel and ppc) so that pre-existing X11 ppc binaries could be run through Rosetta. That would have really smoothed the transition. Jack
