This can't be a good thing.
If tcltk's build scripts and/or makefiles are written properly, it will always see the build-directories before installed things, and BuildConflicts on alternate versions should not be necessary. Just make sure all global -I and -L flags come *after* any local ones, and that local libs are linked directly by filename if possible instead of using -l to find them. If this is *not* the case, then file an upstream bug report, as the scope of the problem is much larger than fink. dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
