I guess you must have fink setup to use the unstable directory for the updates? Because system-tetex-20010808-3 is only in unstable at the moment. You shouldn't be too surprised if there are problems with packages in unstable, and we fink developers appreciate feedback about that. (I personally do not have unstable listed as one of my fink trees; when I want to try something in unstable, I copy it to the local tree.) > It looks like you may have teTex installed .. will check for some > files .. > > Unpacking replacement system-tetex ... > dpkg: error processing > /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin- > powerpc/text/system-tetex_20010808-3_darwin-powerpc.deb (--install): > trying to overwrite `/sw/etc/texmf.local', which is also in package lyx > Errors were encountered while processing: > /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin- > powerpc/text/system-tetex_20010808-3_darwin-powerpc.deb > ### dpkg failed, exit code 1 > Failed: can't install package system-tetex-20010808-3 > > The error message gives you a clue about what to do. Since there is a conflict between this package and lyx, you might try uninstalling lyx first, then installing system-tetex-20010808-3, then reinstalling lyx. As the system-tetex package maintainer, I would appreciate a report on whether or not this was successful. (I am working on a fix for this problem.) -- Dave _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
