Hi everybody!

I experiencing some difficulties in updating my fink distribution. A
couple of weeks ago I upgraded fink via rsync and everything went the
right way; after that I issued a "fink update-all" as suggested at the
end of "fink selfupdate".

I chose "ssl" and "LZW-enabled" packets every time I was asked. At
compiling time I get the following error. This happens right after
successfully compiling of db42-ssl-shlibs.

[...]

Failed: compiling freetype-hinting-1.3.1-8 failed

As far as I understand there's a problem with C compiler. Am I right?
On my PowerBook I installed xCode 1.5.

Many thakns in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, this is fink's version:

alu15:~ eisGeist$ fink -V

It may have nothing to do with the compiler itself, but that you are missing some headers needed for compilation of freetype-hinting. Check in the freetype-hinting build directory for a file called config.log and see what it says the problem is.
