Hello guys!
Do not know when this started, but everytime I try "fink update-all"
the build stops because "gettext-*" is missing. When I install
gettext by hand "fink install gettext-*" and than try a "fink update-
all" gettext gets replaced by libgettext3 and the build stops again.
Is this fixable?
Why is libgettext3 automatically installed if some packets need it,
but gettext must be installed by hand?
Hi,
I think this behaviour is caused by the fact that some packages need
gettext installed when they are compiled, and others need libgettext3,
but think is unable to deal with this itself.
However, if you try to install a package that needs libgettext3 while
gettext is installed, it will automatically remove gettext and install
the other (and vice versa).
So what you should do is not install gettext or libgettext3 yourself
when the build stop, but run 'fink update-all again'. Fink will then
install automatically the package needed for this step of the build.
I think you will need to run 'fink update-all' several times, but
that it will eventually finish.
You are partly right, I was able to update everything except libgnome-
blah by manually updating only a few packets at a time. Only re-
executing "fink update-all" run into a deadlock with libgnome-blah
and left a lot more packets behind not updated. By selecting them by
hand I have only some packets that rely libgnomeprint-blah that could
not be build.
At this moment I see a lot of messages "... differ in signedness"
from compiling libgnomeprint. And I know this is not going to be
build. (Thousands of xml-error about "...not allowed...")
Bye,
Christoph
