i get this now: > $ fink list gnash > Information about 8952 packages read in 3 seconds. > i gnash 0.8.7-2 GNU flash player > i gnash-dev 0.8.7-2 Development files for gnash > i gnash-shlibs 0.8.7-2 Shared libraries for gnash
success!! > The -dev package was the culprit here. -dev packages are never runtime > dependencies, so they can always be removed with just 'fink remove > <foo>'. If you really want to remove a package that others depend on, > you can use 'dpkg -r --force-depends <foo>'. > > Hanspeter that's good info. i think this was relevant to some build failures in days past. i had one last similar hiccup with libavcodec-dev, but i got around it. you said in your first response: > Firefox3 recognizes it, and some Flash stuff works, but things like > Youtube don't play (probably a Flash version and video encoding thing). > I believe that Konqueror and Firefox use the same plugin API, so the > resulting .so file should work with Konqueror as well. so konqueror does recognize the plugin just fine, and now whenever there's a flash element on a page i get a 'start plugin' button, but really almost nothing works yet. nothing i've tried manages to load, and i get only error dialogs. i'd be happy to post that info (or use the 'report bug' button in the kde crash handler-which i think wouldn't be appropriate...), but these are likely the things you were talking about here: > I'm currently not working on trying to fix the gnash problems (too many > other things on my plate). so, thanks for the help with the install! at least i tried what was available. -peterwong . ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
