Hansen: A bit more information would be helpful: was ocaml installed as a binary or did it get built locally? There was no stable, thus no binary, version of O'Caml those days. I've installed it from the sources. If it was built locally then it's probably more important to know what your OS version was at the time of your build on each machine (in particular the powerbook), as well as the Xcode versions of the respective machines.  For example it might be that ocaml builds everything correctly on Panther but not Tiger for some reason--but I kind of doubt it. Both machine are running the Panther, no Tigers her yet. Interesting...did you try "fink rebuild ocaml" on the iBook? Since the same ocaml version is available via the binary distribution for both 10.3 and 10.4-transitional, and since I've just now verified that your missing file is indeed present in the binary archive, see if  sudo apt-get install --reinstall ocaml Can I switch to the binary diribution of O'Caml somehow? hs I think I left out a step above.  Try this: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install --reinstall ocaml That _should_ switch you. Another method is to copy your .deb file (e.g. /sw/fink/10.3/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/languages/ocaml_3.08-1_darwin-powerpc.deb) from the PowerBook to the iBook and then install it via sudo dpkg -i ocaml_3.08-1_darwin-powerpc.deb (where you've changed your directory to wherever you've copied that file to).  -- Alexander Hansen Fink Documentarian [Day Job] Levitated Dipole Experiment http://psfcwww2.psfc.mit.edu/ldx/
