[Fink-users] X11 breaks after installing gimp through Fink

[Curtis Vaughan]

After installing Panther from scratch I installed OpenOffice, which was 
working fine in X11.  Then I installed Fink (0.5.3).  After which I did 
not check to see whether X11 was still working or not.  Then I started 
up dselect to install what I really wanted: GIMP!

During the install of many packages, I got the following error:

You have an existing X11 installation in /usr/X11R6 and /etc/X11.
This package refuses to overwrite these. Remove them, then tell Fink to
install xfree86-base again. (The package won't be recompiled.) If you 
want
to keep your X11 installation, install system-xfree86 resp. 
system-xtools
instead to make this known to Fink's package system.

So, I switched out xfree86 for system-xfree86

After which I got the following error:

It appears you have a partially-installed version of the Apple X11
release.  To use Apple's X11 with Fink, you must download both the
main X11 installer, as well as the SDK (there are actually 2 separate
downloads for the Apple X11 release).  Please go to
http://www.apple.com/macosx/x11/ and download and install the missing
files, and re-attempt your install of system-xfree86.
Ok, so I installed X11 SDK.

Continuing the installation, everything seemed OK.  But then when I 
tried to start of OpenOffice I got an error.  Also, if I try to start 
up X11 using the icon nothing works.  Trying to start up X11 by typing 
simply "X" at the prompt gives me the following error.

dyld: X version mismatch for library: 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version of user: 
6.3.0 greater than library's version: 6.2.0)
Trace/BPT trap

"startx" gives me the following error:

dyld: X version mismatch for library: 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version of user: 
6.3.0 greater than library's version: 6.2.0)
giving up.
xinit:  No such file or directory (errno 2):  unable to connect to X 
server
xinit:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.
Any ideas?
