I tried this last week and got nowhere. I have tried all the suggestions this list has made. Still no joy. Surely this can't be this hard, so what am I doing wrong?
I have Python 2.2 installed just fine. I'm trying to get wxpython installed, which requires wxgtk. At one point, I had xfree86 base and rootless installed and working. At least I was able to startx and get an X environment going. Now that attempt fails after I tried to re-install xfree86-base and ran into a freaking compiler error. So that's one problem. The other is identical to what I had before when xfree86-base was working. I ask fink to install wxgtk (I have the unstable option set). I get a bunch of files on the screen, then I get: >checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.3 >checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.3 >checking for ranlib... ranlib >checking for gcc... no >checking for cc... cc >checking whether the C compiler (cc -no-cpp-precomp -I/sw/include >-L/sw/lib) works... no >configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler >cannot create executables. >### failed, exit code 1 >Failed: compiling freetype-1.3.1-4 failed Someone here suggested I had the wrong C compiler but nobody has indicated how to fix that problem if indeed that is what the error is. For the sake of completeness, here's the error dump I get when I try now to install xfree86-base: >make Makefile.boot >cd ./config/imake && make -f Makefile.ini BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS="" CC="cc" >making imake with BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS= in config/imake >cc -o ccimake -O -I../../include -I../../imports/x11/include/X11 ccimake.c >/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libSystem.dylib load command 6 unknown cmd field >make[2]: *** [ccimake] Error 1 >make[1]: *** [imake.proto] Error 2 >make: *** [World] Error 2 >### failed, exit code 2 >Failed: compiling xfree86-base-4.1.0-9 failed I am _not_ a C programmer and I have a minimal amount of Linux/Unix user-level experience, so please be gentle with me! ;-) -- Dan Shafer, Personal Creativity Trainer and Consultant Trained Hartman Value Profile Analyst http://www.danshafer.com/valueprofile.html _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
