If so, then you're getting bit by a gcc bug that occurs if the following conditions are met: 1. /usr/local/include exists, even if it's empty 2. -I/usr/local/include is specified on the gcc command line 3. -traditional-cpp and/or -no-cpp-precomp is also on the command line When this happens, the preprocessor can forget to check /usr/include for header files. Obviously, this won't succeed! In the case of ethereal there are two workarounds. Rename /usr/local/include to something else temporarily, or edit fink's ethereal .info file by adding --disable-usr-local to the end of the ConfigureScript: line. Hopefully the maintainer will add this to the ethereal package. I've CC'ed this message to him. The cyrus-sasl package also suffers from this bug, but it needs a patched configure script to workaround. Hope that helps. - -- Daniel Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (Darwin) Comment: http://homepage.mac.com/~danielj7/publickey.txt iD8DBQE9nalj4sDFGYouOqARAnnxAJ9pQ/JDr0QTxw0/38X7xLTc/aZ3kgCfZUA0 nT9SV65lsTd2uZKRTeGioQc= =PmbV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
