It's probably going to do more harm than good for me to include my guesses
as to what is wrong here, so I will try to keep it to a minimum. But I
should say that someone suggested that problems were due to ncurses, so I
have rebuilt and reinstalled the following files, but it didn't seem to
help.
[peanut:~] jeffreyc% fink list -i | grep ncurses
i ncurses 5.3-20031018-2 Full-screen ascii drawing library
i ncurses-dev 5.3-20031018-2 Development files for ncurses...
i ncurses-shlibs 5.3-20031018-2 Shared libraries for ncurses package
So here's the problem.
[peanut:/sw/bin] jeffreyc# fink selfupdate
...
can't find curses file make[2]: *** [curkeys.h] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-dselect] Error 2 make: *** [all-recursive] Error 2 ### execution of failed, exit code 2 Failed: compiling dpkg-1.10.9-200 failed
<AKH> Can you post what comes before this? Also, check the config.log file in the dpkg build directory.
I can run dselect just fine, which makes me thing that dpkg is working. So
why would it say that it failed trying to compile dpkg? I get the same
errors when trying to install other packages.
Any help would be appreciated. -Jeff
PS: I also can't install emacs with X11 support because I used the X11
installer from Apple and fink is telling me that I need to delete it first.
Is there any way around this?
<AKH> Are you installing from source or from binary? If the former, you need to install the X11 SDK package. In any case run "fink-virtual-pkgs" to verify whether you have system-xfree86, system-xfree86-shlibs, and system-xfree86-dev.
