Hello, I had installed fink and tetex (through fink) a little while back (2 weeks or so), but I managed to botch my tetex installation, and since I was unable to fix my mistake (removing and re-installing tetex did not work), I went the simple and stupid way and decided to delete /sw and start from scratch. I re-installed fink sucessfully, re-installed a few other things through fink sucessfully (e.g. everything I needed for graphviz), but whenever I try to install tetex, installation aborts with the following message:
<quote> Selecting previously deselected package tetex. (Reading database ... 21967 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking tetex (from .../tetex_2.0.2-2_darwin-powerpc.deb) ...

What is this class file I need and where can I get it? How come fink knows tetex had been previousl "deselected"? I deleted to /sw directory according to the FAQ, so there should be no trace of my previous fink installation. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Marcus [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
