There's no unstable for Lion, which is why you weren't asked. Get rid of that. > So, how do I get kodos and rdiff-backup running under Lion? > > Thanks > Someone has to move the package descriptions and patch files over. kodos may work as-is. rdiff-backup is going to require some updates. It uses python-2.5, and we aren't keeping anything earlier than python-2.6 in Lion. In addition, its dependency librsync isn't available yet on Lion, either. If you want to test them out, you can download the package descriptions and patches: http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.4/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/librsync.info?revision=1.3 http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.4/stable/main/finkinfo/libs/librsync.patch?revision=1.1 http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/rdiff-backup.info?revision=1.11 http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/rdiff-backup.patch?revision=1.5 http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fink/dists/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/kodos.info?revision=1.2 Save these files to /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo, and they should show up in your "fink list". You can then try to build them, modify them, etc. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
