Like Alex, I didn't get the error on 10.5/i386, but I see now that that I could have got it, too. In fact, the "systempython" variant does not mean that the package uses necessarily the python from /System/Library. It means rather "use whatever python you can find", and this can be different on different machines. This used to be OK, because boost does not really _use_ python, it only creates an interface. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be OK any longer, because the python developers have taken lessons from the freetype2 or gnome guys; they now routinely introduce API incompatibilities, even in micro-version updates. The boost package version 1.35.0-5 has a patch against such an incompatibility between python 2.6.2 and 2.6.3. Anyway, I have now put an updated version 1.35.0-6 on the server which should solve the problem for the moment. It doesn't apply the patch for the systempython variant, so the build error will go away. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
