The mirrors were contained in the fink package up to this version. The problems appeared when they were split off into a separate package, starting with fink-0.17.2-1 and fink-mirrors-0.0.2-1. > 8- since fink never updated to 0.17.2 I installed 0.17.3 from > unstable and tried to fetch fink-mirrors again It is always somewhat risky to install only a few packages from unstable, and in the case of fink itself it is outright dangerous, as you could see, because you missed the splitting off of fink-mirrors. If you do this, you are supposed to "know what you are doing". Given that human beings most of the time do not know what they are doing (otherwise life would be very dull indeed ;-) ), this means that you are meant to know enough of fink's structure to climb by yourself out of the holes you fall in. Which you did in the end. > I ran fink selfupdate-cvs again and this time I received this > message: > /bin/mv /sw/fink /sw/fink.old > /bin/mv: rename /sw/fink to /sw/fink.old/fink: Directory not empty > ### execution of /bin/mv failed, exit code 1 > Failed: Can't move "/sw/fink" out of the way This happens when you switch between selfupdate-rsync and selfupdate-cvs several times. It is a sign of fink's limited intelligence, but seeing that you found the right solution, it doesn't seem necessary to do anything about it. > First time I've seen that one.

I installed qt3 and qt3-dev. Fink also installed cups-dev, qt3-designer, qt3-doc, qt3-linguist, and qt3-shlibs. All are version 3.2.3-2. I restarted my shells to get qt3's environment variables QTDIR and QMAKESPEC. I downloaded sip-4.0rc1 from http://www.river-bank.demon.co.uk/download/sip/sip-4.0rc1.tar.gz, unpacked it, ran python configure.py -b ~/local/bin -v ~/local/share/sip and got this error: Error: /sw/share/qt3/mkspecs/darwin-g++/qmake.conf: macro 'QMAKE_LIBDIR/$(TARGET1)' is not defined. I get the same error with the 2003-12-26 sip snapshot, and regardless of the options I specify (which makes sense). AFAICT from the sip/pyqt/pykde mailing list archives, people are running sip and pyqt on Mac OS X, but I can find no references to fink on that archive. $ sw_vers ProductName: Mac OS X ProductVersion: 10.2.8 BuildVersion: 6R73 $ fink --version Package manager version: 0.17.3 Distribution version: 0.6.2.cvs Is anyone on this list running sip and pyqt?
