While I don't see this one, for me gettext-tools stalls at the end in the install phase in the line /sw/bin/ginstall -c -m 644 ./gettext.info '/sw/src/fink.build/root-gettext-tools-0.18.1.1-2/sw/share/info' Activity Monitor shows that it is /sw/bin/grep that hangs, and it hangs in the same function of libintl.8.dylib as /sw/bin/gtar did. In fact (always running as root under "su -"), the following command hangs, too sudo -u fink-bld /sw/bin/grep fink /sw/bin/fink One can make it work by inserting "env LANG=C". If Fink's grep is not installed, then building gettext-tools succeeds. The conclusion is that anything that links to libintl.8.dylib will hang during fink package building if fink is run from root started by "su -". Inserting "env LANG=C" preventively into all these commands won't be easy. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Own the Future-Intel(R) Level Up Game Demo Contest 2013 Rise to greatness in Intel's independent game demo contest.
