Dear Lorenz,
Thank you. Your approach solved my problem.
I did have to manually update some of the other unstable packages (this
is probably why using unstable gnucash-docs didn't work the first time
I tried it last week). I used Fink Commander, and told it to "Use
unstable packages," and then told it to "Update-all." But it still
left about a half dozen packages in "outdated" status. I forced Fink
Commander to update to the each of the outdated stable packages with
unstable packages, and then installed unstable gnucash-docs. It built
okay.
Do you know if I need to stay in the "Use unstable package" mode in
Fink Commander, or should I switch back to using stable packages? I
don't know the consequences of using unstable versus stable packages.
Thank you.
Peter

Dear Michèle,
I'm having the same problem installing gnucash-docs, except I have
Panther 10.3.9.
I'm sorry, I've not a working 10.3 Fink installation so that I cannot
investigate the problem.
My Fink Commander message after the compile fails look just like the
one below (although I haven't checked it line for line).
I did everything you said, except that I don't understand what it
means to put the file 16094-001.bin into my local tree. I tried
placing the file in /sw/bin, and that didn't work. I tried renaming
it to gnucash-docs.info, and that didn't work either. I'm new to
Fink, so I need a little more instruction as to where I should put
the file, and if I need to do anything to it.
You should not rely on a so old mail. The info file in the 10.3 tree
unstable is already updated to the new version since long, long time.
Sorry, I do not use FinkCommander either.
First remove the file you've placed in /sw/bin, it has nothing to do
in such a location.
Apparently you're on 10.3 stable, and unfortunately the info file was
not updated, so that there is no chance that it works.
Maybe you could switch temporarily to 10.3 unstable, update gtk-doc
and install gnucash-docs.
Others may explain better how to do it from inside FinkCommander.
Amicalement,
Michèle

Hello Peter
I am running 10.3.9 and Fink Commander updated me to gnucash-docs
1.8.5-2
I do not remember having any problems. I am however using the unstable
branch. Michele's suggestion seems to be the best bet.
