Hi,
There seems to be very few binary packages available via fink (apt-get)
with 10.4 Intel. I would have thought that this would be the one of the
most popular platforms.
Is my impression correct or have I misconfigured somehow?
Maybe something to do with mirrors in Australia ??
What I would like to be able to do is:
$ sudo apt-get install gnuchash2
$ sudo apt-get install net-snmp-unified
Are there no binary packages for these?
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/gnucash2 seems to suggest
that they are. I do have the unstable tree in my sources.list.
BTW, why is gnuchash2 in crypto ??? Weird !!!
BTW, I've also tried "fink -b -y install gnuchas2" and "fink -b -y
install net-snmp-unified" but they both fail at various points :(
I don't seem to be having much luck with fink. It doesn't seem to be
anywhere near as idiot-proof as Debian apt.
My /sw/etc/apt/sources.list file is:
k9m:~ brendan$ cat /sw/etc/apt/sources.list
# Local modifications should either go above this line, or at the end.
#
# Default APT sources configuration for Fink, written by the fink
program
# Local package trees - packages built from source locally
# NOTE: this is automatically kept in sync with the Trees: line in
# /sw/etc/fink.conf
# NOTE: run 'fink scanpackages' to update the corresponding
Packages.gz files
deb file:/sw/fink local main
deb file:/sw/fink stable main crypto
deb file:/sw/fink unstable main crypto
# Official binary distribution: download location for packages
# from the latest release
deb http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/bindist 10.4/release main crypto
# Official binary distribution: download location for updated
# packages built between releases
deb http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/bindist 10.4/current main crypto
# Put local modifications to this file below this line, or at the top.
Thanks for any help or pointers,
Cheers, Brendan.
