I just updated my system to OS X 10.3.  I had a lot of stuff installed in
fink that I was no longer using, so I decided to back up /sw, then rm it
and start from scratch.  I installed XCode, Apple's X11 and the X11SDK.
Then I installed fink 0.6.2 using the binary installer, and started
installing packages, using apt-get where possible.  I realized fairly
quickly that fink was pointed at the 10.2-gcc3.3 distribution, so I
changed the dists symlink and edited fink.conf.  I am getting some
strange results:

1. giflib would not install, as it did not find x11

Unpacking replacement giflib-bin ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of giflib-shlibs:
  giflib-shlibs depends on x11; however:
   Package x11 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing giflib-shlibs (--install):
  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of giflib-bin:
  giflib-bin depends on x11; however:
   Package x11 is not installed.
  giflib-bin depends on giflib-shlibs (= 4.1.0-17) | libungif-shlibs (>=
4.1.0final-1); however:    Package giflib-shlibs is not configured yet.
   Package libungif-shlibs is not installed.
dpkg: error processing giflib-bin (--install):

I tried a fink index, but I still get the same result.


2. mozilla installed OK, even without giflib.  But the Fink PBD seems to
say that mozilla should not even be available to me with 10.3, so I am
not sure how I managed to install it.

Maybe this is it: it looks like your Trees: and Distribution: lines got glommed together when you edited fink.con, so maybe you're still looking at 10.2-gcc3.3 .info files, and the new system-xfree86 virtual packages aren't recognized.
