Hi all,
It seems that there is an urgent user request to get clhep for gcc3.3, especially for 10.3. I sent an email to this list and to Matt Stephenson (package maintainer) 10 days ago. However I've never got an answer. Has anybody heard anything from Matt? A quick search on fink devel mailing list archive showed the last posting of him in July 2003. I'll be happy to take over the maintenance of this package if nobody disagrees. (Is there any policy for such a case?)

Dear all,[SNIP]
I just received my new Panther/G5, and I'm trying to get all my codes run on that.
Most of them need Fink packages, so I installed Fink 0.6.2.
So far, so good - but I have not done much so...
2 points: 1) I'm using FinkCommander.
2) I mailed to the maintainer of the package (Matt Stephenson), got no answer, and clhep is still absent from the Fink distribution now.
I received a CC-ed mail from Remi Mommsen (thanks Remi) to Matt Stephenson, where Remi said:I was just wondering why clhep does not exists in 10.2-gcc3.3 and 10.3. I copied the info file from the 10.2 tree to the 10.2-gcc3.3 tree and it compiles flawlessly. I haven't tried it yet with 10.3. Any known issues why it shouldn't work?As you may understand from my questions, I'm no expert in programming, but I was wondering if there is a chance to see clhep again as a Fink package: I don't really see how I could install it on my Mac. I went to the clhep web page, and OsX isn't cited as a possible platform... May be Matt is too busy to maintain this package. I wish I could, since I definitively need it...
Best regards,
Manuel
Manuel: The quick solution for you is to copy the info file from the 10.2 tree to your local 10.3 tree:
$ sudo cp /sw/fink/10.2/unstable/main/finkinfo/sci/clhep-1.8.0.0-2.info /sw/fink/10.3/local/main/finkinfo/
$ fink index
Then you should be able to 'fink install clhep' or using FinkCommander.
Let me know if you have problems or if clhep works fine on 10.3.
Cheers,
