Thanks for your report. Starting with fink-0.31.2, fink defaults to using the MaxBuildJobs setting, as set via "fink configure". For various reasons, some packages don't play well with parallel builds, and so feedback from users helps our maintainers find these packages and mark them appropriately. If you see any other cases where the build fails due to a missing file, that's a good sign that the package in question doesn't handle parallel buils, so try setting MaxBuildJobs back to 1 again. Also report whether you succeed or fail, so that we can fix whatever it is appropriately. :-) - -- 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/ iEYEARECAAYFAk6N9Z0ACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ9d7QCfexdkvuarIyvXJRzFw8sgupXJ ni0An1LZHtqyjThVf979fXNM5thH8m5K =6J6d -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
