Way further up. None of what you've posted involves perl588, and that's what is having problems. Fink commander has a preference option to capture a log, so you might want to enable that. > Downloading the indexes of available packages in the binary distribution. > /sw/bin/apt-get-lockwait -q update > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/main Packages > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/main Release > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/crypto Packages > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/release/crypto Release > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/main Packages > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/main Release > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/crypto Packages > Hit http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net 10.4/current/crypto Release > Reading Package Lists... > Building Dependency Tree... The above gets run after you build literally _anything_, and so there's not any information there. > Failed: phase compiling: perl588-5.8.8-9 failed > <un-paste> > > It suggests running fink self update--that was done last Sunday--and > reporting the problem to Fink core group which I'm doing by CC. (perl588 got updated in _unstable_ four days ago) I personally prefer _not_ having people send a message on -users and - -beginners and cc -core, -devel, or -gnome-core until we get to the point of actually knowing what needs to be fixed in a package. The message that comes up following a failed build doesn't distinguish between a package whose maintainer is an individual and one which is maintained by an entity within the Fink project. > > Got yr suggestions on metacity and/or crafty, thanks for pointing out > the problem with crafty.

But yeah, you should be able to use gnuchess or sjeng with xboard until crafty gets fixed. - -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk20gZgACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ+OlQCeIAgdxPs57cHZWF+8C/9UmWQZ qyEAn0VSthv1I7x1EJhZu2twUFAfD4HO =LXkz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fulfilling the Lean Software Promise Lean software platforms are now widely adopted and the benefits have been demonstrated beyond question.
