Currently in the stable tree there is netpbm (9.25-3) and netpbm10 (10.12-2). The strange thing (at least to me) is that one of the splitoffs, netpbm-bin, is part of 10.12, but is named to seem to be part of 9.25 (eg not netpbm10-bin):
netpbm 9.25-3 Graphics manipulation programs and libraries netpbm-bin 10.12-2 Graphics manipulation programs and libraries netpbm-shlibs 9.25-3 Graphics manipulation programs and libraries netpbm10 10.12-2 Graphics manipulation programs and libraries netpbm10-shlibs 10.12-2 Graphics manipulation programs and libraries I noticed this while trying to rebuild imlib with libpng3 (for sawfish for gnome1.4 which stopped working when I upgraded to libpng3) and sawfish depends on netpbm. Here are the BuildDepends/Depends for netpbm-9.25-3: Package: netpbm Version: 9.25 Revision: 3 BuildDepends: libjpeg, libpng3, libtiff Depends: %N-shlibs (= %v-%r), %N-bin Replaces: netpbm (<< 9.25-1), netpbm10 Conflicts: netpbm10 Now, netpbm and netpbm10 should not like each other because netpbm9.25 conflicts with netpbm10 according to the info file. But my commandline for installing netpbm is: nieder % sudo fink install netpbm Information about 1125 packages read in 1 seconds. The following package will be installed or updated: netpbm The following 3 additional packages will be installed: netpbm-bin netpbm-shlibs netpbm10-shlibs Netpbm and netpbm10 supposedly conflict, but they're both going to be installed. Seems to me the only reason netpbm10-shlibs is being installed is because netpbm-bin is a splitoff of netpbm, but in reality is a part of netpbm10 and that requires netpbm10-shlibs. Is this the case of a bad naming system or am I missing something?
