G'day ------------------ Short Version: ------------------
I need to reinstall my OS. Is a backup of /sw sufficient. I've spent 10s of hours building my collection? ------------------ Long Version: ------------------ A few days ago, after doing nothing except allowing firefox to upgrade, gnome-terminal failed to start. This describes it exactly: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27235 I use macports for a few things that fink does not do, or does not do well. macports wont run and a clean install fails. I used fink to reinstall libgnome and gnome-terminal works again, but macports still will not run. Clearly here be dragons. Rather than spend ages trying to find wots-wrong I decided the Winders-way (just reinstall the whole OS) was the quickest. What do I need to backup to get fink back with the least trauma Thanks James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list Fink-beginners@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-beginners
