Hi there,

a 0.4.0a distro of fink shows weird (?) behavior on my OS X 10.1.5 machine.

bash2.05 root@nadja /sw/bin % fink install sitecopy
(...)
(tries to install dependend package expat):
 ./configure --prefix=/sw --mandir=/sw/share/man
checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.5
checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.5
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler
cannot create executables
###  failed, exit code 77
Failed: compiling expat-1.95.3-2 failed

This happens with basically any package that's supposed to be compiled.
Now, of course Developer Tools are installed (it's 12/2001, I don't have any
newer pack).

Trying to ./configure the expat package manually gives the same problem,
however, I could perfectly solve it with

env CC=c++ ./configure

Now, doing the same with fink fails. Obviously, fink sets the CC flags (due
to some package info??) itself. Is there any way to get around this?

[n.b.: I just want to use the sitecopy package, it's really a pity that I
have to spend hours trying to get dependent stuff working... I just wanna be
a simple stupid user... :-)  ]

Thanks for your help -

dave
