This problem with xpdf has me completely wedged. Everything up to selfupdate now aborts.

Forget about getting xpdf to install: how do I get rid of it?

Sorry to ask, but have you tried "fink remove xpdf"?

Anyway, I don't think the other problems you were reporting (jadetex and freetype) had anything to do with xpdf. The xpdf problem was just mentioned by dpkg any time it was executed.

For jadetex, you had the error in the postinst script

fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.

This was something several people had been seeing during the recent tetex update. I think it disappeared once the latest versions of the tetex packages and of lilypond (if you have this installed) were installed. It was due to some unnecessary environment variable or other.


For freetype219, you had the build error

Can't open builds/unix/libtool: No such file or directory.
make
config.mk:25: /unix-def.mk: No such file or directory
config.mk:26: /unix-cc.mk: No such file or directory

This hints also at either some strange environment or at a problem with your basic build tools, like sed or make. I have only seen this once, 6 weeks ago on fink-beginners, but unfortunately we were not able to find the reason for this error.
