Dear fink developers,
There has been a small change to the bootstrap, related to my recent project
to make Fink compatibile with newer versions of perl. There are two
additional packages present in the bootstrap now: storable-pm560 and
system-perl580. Only one of these will actually be built when bootstrapping
fink, and the user will have to choose which one (in the middle of the
bootstrap, unfortunately). However, I have tested this, and fink can now
be bootstrapped when /usr/bin/perl is either version 5.6.0 or version 5.8.0.
(This is all partly based on a guess that the developer preview for 10.3
will have perl 5.8.0: i'm tyring to get ready for that in advance.)
If anyone else tests this, please let me know how it goes.
I haven't test this yet, but clearly it can only be a temporary solution and not something we would want to release. Why does it only ask the user in the middle of the bootstrap? This should be at the very least asked right at the start, though I wonder, why does the user have to be asked at all?
