Hello List - I have learned much from subscribing to this list, reading all the solutions to the various problems. Also, the Fink FAQ is of a great help. Until now I have never posted, but I am stuck with an install failure that I cannot seem to find the solution to.
I'm using OS X 10.4.6 on a G4 PowerBook, and using Fink Commander. I believe everything is up to date. I've run selfupdate-rsync and update-all many times. It will probably be obvious to those reading this, but I'm not sure exactly what is failing. Even though I've been using X11 for several years, I consider myself a beginner. Having said that, my suspicion is that I have a problem with two installs of texi2html, one newer than the one recognized by Fink, but that's only a guess. Here's the last part of the log from Fink Commander. I hope I've copied far enough back to give all the clues to the problem: **** (Start of paste) .build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/m4sugar/m4sh.m4f Making install in autoconf make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. /bin/sh ../../config/mkinstalldirs /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf mkdir -p -- /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoconf.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/autoco nf.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 general.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/genera l.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 status.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/status .m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 oldnames.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/oldnam es.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 specific.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/specif ic.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoheader.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/autohe ader.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoupdate.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/autoup date.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autotest.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/autote st.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoscan.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/autosc an.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 lang.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/lang.m 4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 c.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/c.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 fortran.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/fortra n.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 functions.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/functi ons.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 headers.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/header s.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 types.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/types. m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libs.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/libs.m 4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 programs.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/progra ms.m4 /bin/sh ../../config/mkinstalldirs /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoconf.m4f /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoconf/autoco nf.m4f Making install in autotest make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. /bin/sh ../../config/mkinstalldirs /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autotest mkdir -p -- /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autotest /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autotest.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autotest/autote st.m4 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 general.m4 /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autotest/genera l.m4 /bin/sh ../../config/mkinstalldirs /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autotest /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autotest.m4f /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autotest/autote st.m4f Making install in autoscan make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. /bin/sh ../../config/mkinstalldirs /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoscan mkdir -p -- /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoscan /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoscan.list /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autoscan/autosc an.list Making install in emacs make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. mkdir -p -- /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoconf-mode.el /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp/autoconf -mode.el /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autoconf-mode.elc /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp/autoconf -mode.elc /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autotest-mode.el /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest -mode.el /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autotest-mode.elc /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest -mode.elc make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. /bin/sh ../config/mkinstalldirs /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 autom4te.cfg /sw/src/fink.build/root-autoconf2.5-2.59-7/sw/share/autoconf/autom4te.cfg Making install in config make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-data-am'.
