<snip> Oops: the FAQ mentioned rebuilding, but I forgot that the entry was written before we implemented build locks--which won't work under these circumstances. Try sudo apt-get install --reinstall --download-only app-defaults as you suggested. Actually, now that I think about it, the file list for app-defaults is pretty short. It might be easier if you just edited it yourself. If you do something like sudo nano /sw/var/lib/dpkg/info/app-defaults.list then make sure the the following entries are there /sw/etc/app-defaults/Editres-color /sw/etc/app-defaults/Viewres /sw/etc/app-defaults/XCalc /sw/etc/app-defaults/XCalc-color /sw/etc/app-defaults/XClipboard /sw/etc/app-defaults/XClock /sw/etc/app-defaults/XConsole /sw/etc/app-defaults/XFontSel /sw/etc/app-defaults/XLoad /sw/etc/app-defaults/XLogo /sw/etc/app-defaults/XLogo-color /sw/etc/app-defaults/XSm /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xditview /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xditview-chrtr /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xedit /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xedit-color /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xfd /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xgc /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xmag /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xman /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xmessage /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xmh /sw/etc/app-defaults/Xvidtune (and make sure to put a newline at the end), then hit Control-X and save the file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
