No clue. There's not enough context--we don't know what package is complaining, what file it is, etc. I'd recommend not bothering to check the difference and just to take the version of the file that is on the system. The fact that you're getting the same message is actually a good thing. > > %c å°è¢«æ ä»¶ IIDã</long> > </locale> > + > + <locale name="zh_HK"> > + <short>é > å > 件檢è¦ç¨å¼</short> > + </locale>äº > + > + <locale name="zh_TW"> > + <short>é > å > 件檢è¦ç¨å¼</short> > + </locale>äº > + > + <locale name="zu"> > + <short>Iphutha lesitho sokusetshenziswa sokubuka</short> > + <long>Isisebenziso sokubona ohele abadinga isitho sokubabona. > Isigamu %s sizokubuyiselwa ngehele URIs, isigamu %c sizokubuyiselwa > ngesitho IID.</long> > + </locale> > </schema> > </schemalist> > </gconfschemafile> > (END) > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Then, I tried the update-all command again and I got another "failed.": > > [:~] fritzhud% fink update-all -y use binary dist (That's not a correct command, but it's not causing your problem: update-all is fine, but fink ignores any arguments after that. "-y" should go before "update-all" (and any other commands) and to use the binary distribution, the right way to specify that is "--use-binary-dist" So you really want fink -y --use-binary-dist update-all And you don't really need --use-binary-dist, because that's turned on automatically by default. Plus, it doesn't do as much as you might think, because it only uses the binary distribution if that has the latest version of a package.) > Password: > Information about 5167 packages read in 3 seconds. > The following 9 packages will be installed or updated: > gnome-desktop4-shlibs gnome-vfs2 gnome-vfs2-shlibs libbonoboui2 > libbonoboui2-shlibs libgnome2 libgnome2-shlibs libgnomeui2 > libgnomeui2-shlibs > The following 11 additional packages will be installed: > autoconf automake1.10 gnome-python2-py25 gnome-vfs2-unified > gnome-vfs2-unified-dev gnome-vfs2-unified-shlibs libbonoboui2-dev > libgettext3-dev libgnome2-dev libgnomeui2-dev libtool14 > Do you want to continue?
