I haven't tried to rebuild dx in a while, but I cannot run dx any longer.
It used to work fine, but now I'm observing two different failiure modes:
Problem 1: "cannot connect to dxexec", which means nothing works.
Problem 2: on one machine, I can still run visual programs but the graphics
output is garbled.
I'm mentioning this because superficially dx seems to start up normally,
so a quick look could fool you into thinking that the program is working!
I did fink selfupdate and update-all recently, and switched to Apple X11 (beta 3)
a while ago. But I did manage do work with dx under Aplle X11 before,
unless my memory fails me completely.
If someone wants to verify this, type "dx" or better dx -edit then choose "Run Visual Programs..." from the menu, navigate to "/sw/share/dx/samples/tutorial" and open (e.g.) "Color2D.net" Then (if you get this far) type CTRL-O and hope that X11 doesn't crash. It just did for me. You also may get to see a garbled picture first...
I have dx and dx-samples installed, and I'm hoping that this can be fixed with a dx-4.3 version within fink.
