| Fink had a problem installing this version of Emacs
because |
| emacs21 couldn't be launched
successfully. |
| |
| This typically happens when the package was compiled on
a |
| system with an older version of Mac OS X installed. At
this |
| point you should try recompiling the emacs version that
caused |
| this error with a command
like: |
| fink rebuild
<flavor> |
| where <flavor> is a package name like `emacs21' or `emacs21-
nox' |
| |
| If this doesn't solve the problem, please notify the
maintainer |
| of the emacs package in
question. |

could i just nuke emacs in various place that it exists and try
again? i
tried removing it, but fink pukes on that...
My recommendation is to try
fink remove emacs21
fink rebuild emacsen-common
fink rebuild emacs21
(I believe I had to go through this sequence myself).
