I've been testing it on SL 32/64bit, Lion and ML with differents version of
Xcode and I get the same error.
Shorting the Fink's prefix to 45 characters makes it work.
For example, "/Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/Fk" works.
By interpreting this we can deduce that the longest file path that "dpkg"
(or whatever) can handle is
"/Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/Fk/share/locale/en@boldquot/LC_MESSAGES/gettext-runtime.mo",
so a total of 101 characters.
