Trying to downgrade from the latest fink via this route gives the error attached below at the end of this mail. However, in one of my backups I found a deb of version 0.29.21-51, installed it apparently successfully with dpkg over the latest one and arrived at the same empty Makefile and no-targets-error as before when trying to build sed. Running configure and make manually inside its unfinished build-dir without finks env initialized but with parameters "--with-libiconv-prefix=/sw --mandir=/sw/share/man --infodir=/sw/share/info --program-prefix=g" (as per the sed.info-file) builds the latest binary. ___error message for downgrade via latest fink: Checking for Test::More... ./00compile.t ............................ 1/? # Failed test 'require Fink::version' # at ./00compile.t line 36. # got: 'Can't locate Fink/version/vpp.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /sw/src/fink.build/fink-0.29.21-51/perlmod /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin /Library/Perl/Updates/5.10.0 /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Network/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Network/Library/Perl /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0 .) at (eval 144) line 2. # BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 144) line 2. # Compilation failed in require at (eval 142) line 3. # ' # expected: '' # Failed test 'require Fink::version::vpp' # at ./00compile.t line 36. # got: 'Can't locate Fink/version/vpp.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /sw/src/fink.build/fink-0.29.21-51/perlmod /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /sw/lib/perl5 /sw/lib/perl5/darwin /Library/Perl/Updates/5.10.0 /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Network/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Network/Library/Perl /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0 .) at (eval 147) line 3. # ' # expected: '' # Looks like you failed 2 tests of 126. ./00compile.t ............................
