I tried the f.a.q. advise at http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/comp-general.php?phpLang=en#usr-local- libs
Sadly that didn't help at all. This seems to be quite a common problem but despite many google searches, I can't find any actual solutions!
Despite the comment that libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.la' was moved., it still seems to be there.
Any more suggestions?
Many thanks.

I have been trying to install Gnumeric using Fink from source.
After many problems, I have cleared everything off and reinstalled the latest Xcode Tools 1.5 and the November 2004 gcc 3.3 updater. I then installed the Fink binaryand ran self update from FinkCommander OK.
I then tried to install Gnumeric directly and it failed.
I have then tried to source install the dependencies, package by package and whilst several install OK, the following all failed:
libgnomeprintui2.2 (2.6.2-8)
libgsf (1.10.1-0)
libglade2 (2.3.6-16)
libgnome2 (2.6.1.2-9)
They all failed with the same type of problem, this example from libgsf:
libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.la' was moved.
libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.la'
make[2]: *** [gconf-sanity-check-2] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
### execution of make failed, exit code 2
Failed: compiling gconf2-2.6.3-10 failed
Looking back through various message boards, I see this type of issue being solved by fix-fink but when I installed that and tried to run it, it failed to run and I subsequently found other posts that it was obsolete in any case.
It's obsolete for that.
Can anybody advise me where to go next?
The reference to /usr/local/lib/freetype.la is highly suspicious:
http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/comp-general.php?phpLang=en#usr-local- libs
Also, regarding the dependencies, which of the many Fink listed versions of Python do I need
Don't bother with the -nox versions, since gnumeric is an X11 app. Go with the latest one (python24)
and what aregnome-xml and gda? They appear as dependencies but aren't listed on Fink stable packages.
Many thanks in advance.
