I finally sorted out the cause of a crash I was getting when the cadabra test suite was run on 10.5 PPC. I captured some logs of the crash, and sent them to the cadabra author. He determined that the root cause was something fouled up in my GMP installation. Rebuilding GMP fixed the problem. Meanwhile, the cadabra author has made a number of fixes, some of which address issues that were reported to him by OS X users. I committed the fink package for cadabra 1.20 yesterday. It should work on 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6, although I have only tested it on 10.5 PPC and 10.6 Intel. -- Kevin Horton Ottawa, Canada ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
