How about 9.11: http://www.finkproject.org/faq/usage-packages.php?phpLang=en#apple-x11-wants-xfree86 ? You should expect to get the same results from a batch install or a single install. The error suggests that you have Apple's X11 but not its SDK (from Xcode). Install that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
