This is a bug in the OpenOffice.org installer. It requires dlcompat, but expects dlcompat to be found in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib . If you add a symlink from one of those two directories to the Fink copy of libdl.dylib, it should work. Try something like: `sudo ln -s /sw/lib/libdl.dylib /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib` Note that the current OpenOffice.org binary is a very early release meant to attract more develppers to the project. In particular, you can't save or print anything yet. -- Greg Parker [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
