[Fink-users] problems compiling anything

[Philip Trauring]

I seem to have messed up something along the way and now I can't seem to install anything. It appears to be a problem with dpkg, but I don't know enough about how it works to fix it. If someone could help me I would be appreciative. An example:

dpkg-deb -b root-base-files-1.9.0-1 /sw/fink/dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/base
### execution of dpkg-deb failed, exit code 10
Failed: can't create package base-files_1.9.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb

This was from running an update-all, but whenever I try to ugrade any package I get a similar response at the end.
