perhaps this faq entry helps

<http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-packages.php?phpLang=en#apple- x11-wants-xfree86>

most likely you do not have the x11 SDK installed, it's on your mac osx install cd or can be downloaded at apple.

I am now confused; I used to "fink selfupdate" and this is what I used to get: -------------------- $ fink selfupdate sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate Password:

(1)      Delete it and download again
(2)      Assume it is a partial download and try

(3)      Don't download, use existing file

The file "CURRENT-FINK" already exists, how do you
want to proceed? [1]

You already have the package descriptions from the
latest Fink point release.
(installed:0.5.2 available:0.5.4)

What am I doing wrong to be working with an
ancient
fink?





See if following the instructions under

http://fink.sourceforge.net/download/fix-upgrade.php

gets you a newer version.

This is a small follow-up on the message where I said, for installing gv, fink wants to install xfree86 even though I have Apple X11 installed.

fink doesnt seem to be able to find Apple X11..

fink list x11
Information about 1852 packages read in 4 seconds.
     x11
[virtual package]
     x11-dev
[virtual package]
     x11-shlibs
[virtual package]


I dont see an "i" at the beginning of the line.

Can anyone tell me how to let fink find Apple X11?

Thanks!

Veera.
