I tried your suggestion, and I'm having some difficulty removing gettext. sudo /sw/bin/fink remove gettext Information about 646 packages read in 1 seconds. pkg gettext version ### pkg gettext version 0.10.40-2 dpkg --remove gettext dpkg: error processing gettext (--remove): This is an essential package - it should not be removed. Errors were encountered while processing: gettext ### execution of dpkg failed, exit code 1 Failed: can't remove package(s) :) obviously, lifelines is installing in the wrong place. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
