I'm trying to install xfree86 on a new MacBook Pro. I haven't
installed any other versions of X11 yet (including the one on the
Apple disk). The install plugs along happily for quite a while and
then ends with:
Selecting previously deselected package xfree86.
(Reading database ... 4129 files and directories
currently installed.)
Unpacking xfree86 (from
.../xfree86_4.5.0-1024_darwin-i386.deb) ...
WARNING: if you compile X11 applications against this
XFree86 release,
you will *not* be able to run them if you decide to
revert to Apple's
X11 provided with the OS.
Selecting previously deselected package
xfree86-shlibs.
Unpacking xfree86-shlibs (from
.../xfree86-shlibs_4.5.0-1024_darwin-i386.deb) ...
Setting up xfree86-shlibs (4.5.0-1024) ...

Failed: can't batch-install packages:

/sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-i386/x11-system/xfree86-
shlibs_4.5.0-1024_darwin-i386.deb
When I try an "install xfree86" again or a "update xfree86" it says
its attempting to replace it, then fails very quickly with what looks
like a similar error. When I try to remove it, it says xfree86 is
not installed. I'm stuck, suggestions?
Thanks for any help,
Romy
