Martin,
As you may have read in my most recent post, I did fix the problem without having to
reinstall X11-beta3. I will keep xfree86-4.4.0 in mind in case my X11 does get corrupted
before I get around to getting Panther.
You hint that Fink now detects x11 automatically. Is this why system-xfree86 no longer
needs to be explicitly installed? What other place-holder packages like system-xfree86
are no longer necessary?
Here's what's on my system (excerpted from fink-virtual-pkgs) (Fink-0.19)
Package: system-java13 Status: install ok installed Version: 1.3.1-1 description: [virtual package representing Java 1.3.1]
Package: system-java13-dev
Status: install ok installed
Version: 1.3.1-1
description: [virtual package representing Java 1.3.1 development headers]
Package: system-java14 Status: install ok installed Version: 1.4.2-1 description: [virtual package representing Java 1.4.2]
Package: system-java14-dev
Status: install ok installed
Version: 1.4.2-1
description: [virtual package representing Java 1.4.2 development headers]
Package: system-perl Status: install ok installed Version: 5.8.1-1 provides: perl581-core description: [virtual package representing perl]
system-tetex and system-ghostscript are still externally installed, however.
