I have been using fink 0.3.x for about 3 years, then decide to upgrade to 0.6.2. I had many problems to to that, so I "rm /sw", then reinstall fink from scratch.
I had the following "classic" problem when first trying to use gimp binary installed package :
fink can't open library: /sw/lib/libdl.0.dylib
A quick search an google later, I installed dlcompat and gimp worked well. Then I made some other stuffs, basicly installed xemacs which worked wel as well and the tomorrow morning (I missed all what I did), I had the same error message again and the following stuff in /sw/lib and /usr/local/lib :
ll /sw/lib/libdl* /usr/local/lib/libdl*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 23708 Nov 7 04:33 /sw/lib/libdl.a
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 13 Feb 10 11:28 /sw/lib/libdl.dylib -> libdl.0.dylib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 7688 Oct 16 2001 /usr/local/lib/libdl.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13888 Oct 16 2001 /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib
I thought that /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib is a rest of my former fink installation and I understood that /sw/lib/libdl.0.dylib was missing. I try to uninstall/reinstall dlcompat without success and finally add the following link in /sw/lib:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 26 Feb 10 11:28 /sw/lib/libdl.0.dylib -> /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib
So, now, it works, but I would like to understandw what happens. Thanks in advance. Regards.
