perl5.10.0 is not available on 10.4, so any package that has perl-version variants must have its 5100 variant made unavailable on 10.4 also. The Distribution field is a positive assertion, so the form you see would have to be updated to: Distribution: (%type_pkg[perl] = 5100) 10.5, (%type_pkg[perl] = 5100) 10.6 to make the 5100 variant available on 10.6 as well as 10.5. I thought x86_64 was an Architecture variable, not a Distribution one? Maybe you're conflating two different issues (or have one problem affecting another symptom somewhere else)? dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel
