I just stumbled over the following 'feature' using a recent fink version (cvs). I try to build the package c-scan-pm which depends only on data-flow-pm, no builddepends:
Package: c-scan-pm Version: 0.74 Revision: 1 Depends: data-flow-pm
When using fink 0.17.1.cvs-20031223.0249 the build command does not pull in the dependency data-flow-pm which causes the build process to fail.
$ fink build c-scan-pm
/usr/bin/sudo /sw/bin/fink build c-scan-pm
Information about 2180 packages read in 5 seconds.
The following package will be built:
c-scan-pm
But it works with fink install: $ fink install c-scan-pm /usr/bin/sudo /sw/bin/fink install c-scan-pm Information about 2180 packages read in 4 seconds. The following package will be installed or updated: c-scan-pm The following additional package will be installed: data-flow-pm
Using fink 0.17.1-1 'fink build' does the right thing, too: $ fink build c-scan-pm /usr/bin/sudo /sw/bin/fink build c-scan-pm Information about 2180 packages read in 4 seconds. The following package will be built: c-scan-pm The following additional package will be installed: data-flow-pm
Cheers, Remi
