Seems that quite some package install files that carry references to files from their build/install dirs, which doesn't seem right. In some cases this may not be an issue at all, but at least it's a sign of a potential issue.
So I went into /sw/lib (on my stable, i.e. "bindist" system) and did this: grep -rIs "/sw/src" * | cut -f1 -d: | sort | uniq This gave me a list of "affected" files (all in /sw/lib): libMagick.la libgif.la libgnomevfs-pthread.la libgnomevfs.la libwraster.la libxml2.la perl5/Fink/Validation.pm perl5/darwin/auto/Digest/MD5/.packlist perl5/darwin/auto/Image/Magick/.packlist perl5/darwin/auto/Storable/.packlist tclConfig.sh tkConfig.sh vfs/modules/libbzip2.la vfs/modules/libdesktop.la vfs/modules/libextfs.la vfs/modules/libfile.la vfs/modules/libftp.la vfs/modules/libgconf.la vfs/modules/libgzip.la vfs/modules/libhttp.la vfs/modules/libvfs-pipe.la vfs/modules/libvfs-test.la vfs/modules/libvfs-translate.la Running this for my "normal" system gives me these files (all in /sw/lib) as containting a suspicious path: bonobo/plugin/libstorage_efs.la gimp/1.2/modules/libcolorsel_gtk.la gimp/1.2/modules/libcolorsel_triangle.la gimp/1.2/modules/libcolorsel_water.la latex2html/cfgcache.pm libMagick.la libgck.la libgif.la libgimp.la libgimpui.la libgtkextra.la libeditor.prl libexslt.la libneon.la libospgrove.la libostyle.la libqt-mt.prl libqui.prl libwraster.la libxml2.la libxslt.la mozilla/components/xpti.dat python2.2/site-packages/libxml2mod.la python2.2/site-packages/libxsltmod.la ruby/1.6/powerpc-darwin5.2/rbconfig.rb tclConfig.sh tkConfig.sh xemacs-21.5-b4/powerpc-apple-darwin5.2/config.values xemacs-21.5-b4/powerpc-apple-darwin5.2/include/Emacs.ad.h In addition, it appears in every single .packlist file inside /sw/lib/perl5/darwin, though it seems to be now that this is normal & harmless (correct me if I'm wrong). Thus the list of packages that should be checked includes at least bonobo giflib gimp gnomevfs imagemagick neon / neon19 libxslt libxml2 ruby qt tcltk windowmaker xemacs I'd like to ask the package maintainers of these packages (this includes me <g>) to look into this and check whether their package has to be fixed.
