Dear Alexander,
I followed your advice:
> You can get XFree86 4.2 (-base and -rootless; the -server package

and removed /usr/X11R6 and /Applications/Xdarwin.app, then did a "Fink
selfupdate". Everything was going well until dpkg update. The following is
the last few lines of the installation message:
creating utils/Makefile
creating po/Makefile
creating config.h
make
echo "#define DPKG_VERSION \"1.9.20\" /* This line modified by Makefile */"
> version.h
set -e ; target=`echo all-recursive | sed s/-recursive//`; for d in include
optlib lib intl dpkg-deb split scripts utils main utils dselect po methods
doc ; do make -C $d $target ; done;
make: illegal option -- C
usage: make [-Beiknqrstv] [-D variable] [-d flags] [-E variable] [-f
makefile]
[-I directory] [-j max_jobs] [-m directory] [-V variable]
[variable=value] [target ...]
*** Error code 2
Stop in /sw/src/dpkg-1.9.20-1/dpkg-1.9.20.
### failed, exit code 1
Failed: compiling dpkg-1.9.20-1 failed
I am kind of lost from this point. Do you think that I could ignore this and
get xfree86 via fink? Should I get dpkg from Fink stable? (I believe that
the selfupdate looked at the CVS, at least that was my impression.
Help!! Thanks so much!!
Chia
