Probably. Mucking around with things under the hood can indeed make it difficult to build new packages unless you neutralize the changes, and this is especially true when using a package manager since it expects things to be a certain way. > I then decided to attempt a > complete reinstall of fink, deleting /Applications/Fink/* and moving /sw to > /sw2 as a backup. > > When trying to install fink I receive the following error message: > > %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% > > checking whether /sw/var/lib/fink/path-prefix-libcxx/g++ understands -c and > -o together... no > checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp > configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check > ### execution of ./configure failed, exit code 1 > phase compiling: ncurses-5.9-20110507-1 failed > > > Package manager version: 0.38.2 > Distribution version: selfupdate-point (bootstrap), 10.9, x86_64 > Trees: local/main stable/main > Xcode.app: 6.1 > Xcode command-line tools: 6.1.0.0.1.1413057044 > Max.

What do you get from the following (before doing any changes): /sw/var/lib/fink/path-prefix-libcxx/g++ --version /lib/cpp --version ? It would also be useful to see a relevant portion of the config.log file from your ncurses build directory. —AKH ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ 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
