I have been staring longingly at <http://

supported and was wondering if there is something like the
Debian "alien" tool for Fink, that can help us install packages
from FreeBSD or .deb? This is at this time the only program that
I am frustrated about not having been ported to Fink. It is a
great resource for polyglots.

It is very easy to compile StarDict yourself: All additional
libraries can be installed manually by Fink. Load the source file
stardict-2.4.6.tar.bz2 to your desktop, expand with
StuffitExpander. In the Terminal, write "export LDFLAGS=-L/sw/
lib", cd to the stardict folder (directory), type "./configure".
If additional libraries are missing, install them with Fink, else
type "make" and finally "sudo make install".
Good luck
Eugen
OK, Here is the response:
$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... no
checking for nawk... no
checking for awk... awk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of
Makefiles... no
checking for gconftool-2... no
checking for intltool >= 0.22... 0.27.2 found
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl
module is required for intltool
The way that I read this is that something called a "parser perl
module" needs to be installed. That is the only module correct? So
I need to install that and then do another "./configure" and then
"make" and "sudo make install". Is that correct?
Cheers,

That's correct. You can install this perl module with fink (-> xml-
parser). BTW, I forgot to mention that you should type "./configure
--with-x --disable-gnome-support", thus you won't need to have
gnome installed.

Hi Eugen,
Fink returns:
$ fink install xml-parser
Information about 1976 packages read in 1 seconds.
Failed: no package found for specification 'xml-parser'!
I did a "fink-selfupdate" just before this. The Fink home page lists
a number of packages, all starting with "xml-parser-pm". When I try
that, Fink returns:
$ fink install xml-parser-pm
Password:
Information about 1976 packages read in 1 seconds.
Failed: no package found for specification 'xml-parser-pm'!
What is going on????
Cheers,
Brian
