[Fink-beginners] VTE and freetype conflict

[Aki Hoji]

HI,  Compiling vte 0.12.0-1 did not go well because of an apparent conflict with freetype as follows; fink-buildlock-vte-0.12.0-1 conflicts with freetype   freetype-hinting provides freetype and is unpacked but not configured. /sw/bin/dpkg: error processing /sw/src/fink.build/fink-buildlock-vte-0.12.0-1_2006.04.06-10.40.58_darwin-powerpc.deb (--install): conflicting packages - not installing fink-buildlock-vte-0.12.0-1 Errors were encountered while processing: /sw/src/fink.build/fink-buildlock-vte-0.12.0-1_2006.04.06-10.40.58_darwin-powerpc.deb ### execution of /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 1 Can't set build lock for vte (0.12.0-1) I checked the freetype installation, and all I have for version 1 is the free-type shlibs, which I can't remove even with -r option because of the dependency problem.        freetype             1.3.1-9         TrueType font rendering library, version 1      freetype-bin         1.3.1-9         TrueType font rendering library, version 1      freetype-hinting     1.3.1-9         TrueType font rendering library, version 1, hinting enabled      freetype-hinting...  1.3.1-9         TrueType font rendering library, version 1, hinting enabled      freetype-hinting...  1.3.1-9         TrueType font rendering library, version 1, hinting enabled i   freetype-shlibs      1.3.1-9         TrueType font rendering library, version 1 p   freetype2            2.1.4-11        TrueType font rendering library, (dummy) p   freetype2-dev        2.1.4-11        TrueType font rendering library, headers i   freetype2-hinting    2.1.4-11        TrueType font rendering library, (dummy) i   freetype2-hintin...  2.1.4-11        TrueType font rendering library, headers i   freetype2-hintin...  2.1.4-11        TrueType font rendering library, shared libs p   freetype2-shlibs     2.1.4-11        TrueType font rendering library, shared libs i   freetype219          2.1.9-1         TrueType font rendering library, headers i   freetype219-shlibs   2.1.9-1         TrueType font rendering library, shared libs Fink will attempt to remove --recursive 1 package Do you want to continue?
