That message means that none of the base packages were updated. It doesn't reflect potentially downloading updated package descriptions. > > I've attached the output of running "fink -y install pidgin" and "fink > -y install libtheora0". They're pretty much the same, so there was really no need to attach both.

The error is: libtool: link: gcc -I/sw/include -Wall -Wno-parentheses -O3 -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions -funroll-loops -o .libs/png2theora png2theora-png2theora.o -L/sw/lib ../lib/.libs/libtheoraenc.dylib ../lib/.libs/libtheoradec.dylib /sw/lib/libogg.dylib /sw/lib/libpng16.dylib -lm Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_png_sizeof", referenced from: _png_read in png2theora-png2theora.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 Indeed, there's no _png_sizeof in /sw/lib/libpng16.dylib. libtheora0 doesn't declare a dependency on any libpng, but it does indeed check for it and use it, so it _should_ do that. As a workaround, do a "fink install libpng15", since that libpng version provides that symbol. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
