I've been working off and on on a package for fink.
The problem is that the install script hardlinks the directory it is
installed in inside a bunch of scripts critical for the performance of the
program.
So, where /sw/bin should be, there is /sw/src/root-*/sw/bin
It would be easiest to just do the install, fix them all up myself, and
then patch them during the install phase.
My question is, is this a problem? That is, is it bad for a fink package
to have a .patch file not used in the patch phase, but instead the install
phase?
Don't use a .patch, use perl or sed.
For example: perl -pi -e 's#%i#%p#g' file1 file2 file3... Should do the trick. -Ben ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
