This is on Mac OS X 10.4.9. The output of "uname -a" is: Darwin leon-dagues-computer.local 8.9.3 Darwin Kernel Version 8.9.3: Fri Apr 27 14:50:07 PDT 2007; root:xnu-792.19.5~2/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386
I am trying to do "First Time Installation," "Installing the Source Distribution." (Those are section headers from the User's Guide chapter 2, which I am following.) So I follow the instructions in the User's Guide, and the output of bootstrap.sh ends with: make: *** [test] Error 1 ### execution of make failed, exit code 2 phase compiling: fink-0.24.17-31 failed Before reporting any errors, please run "fink selfupdate" and try again.... A more complete output of bootstrap.sh is currently at: http://userpages.umbc.edu/~ldague1/leon.bootstrap.txt (I got that by running bootstrap.sh with the command line "./bootstrap.sh | tee leon.bootstrap.txt".) I try to run "fink selfupdate" and get "fink: command not found." OK, I figure that's because my environment (PATH variable) isn't set up. So I proceed to Section 2.3 of the User's Guide, "Setting Up Your Environment." That advises me to try executing "/sw/bin/pathsetup.sh", which gets me "-bash: /sw/bin/pathsetup.sh: No such file or directory." So I see what *is* in /sw/bin. Not much: $ ls /sw/bin/ editor init.csh init.sh pager Is the fink command *anywhere* under /sw/? Googling suggested to me that it's a perl script. I take a look: $ find /sw/ -name fink -exec file {} \; /sw//fink: directory /sw//src/fink.build/fink-0.24.17-31/fink: perl script text executable /sw//src/fink.build/fink-0.24.17-31/t/basepath/fink: directory /sw//var/lib/fink: directory How about pathsetup.sh? $ find /sw/ -name 'pathsetup*' -exec file {} \; /sw//src/fink.build/fink-0.24.17-31/pathsetup.sh: Bourne shell script text executable /sw//src/fink.build/fink-0.24.17-31/pathsetup.sh.in: Bourne shell script text executable I tried running /sw//src/fink.build/fink-0.24.17-31/fink and /sw//src/fink.build/fink-0.24.17-31/pathsetup.sh, neither of which has an executable bit set. Both commands failed (details on request). But the fact that they are under /sw/src/fink.build/ directory instead of in /sw/bin/ may be enough to, I hope, suggest what's going wrong. I looked through the FAQ, didn't see anything that applies. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] My opinions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
