Well, the CVS issues are not yet even ironed out (no instructions for the general Fink users available that don't require some non-trivial command line tinkering), and xcode-2.3 introduced some serious new bugs. So for official announcements on the lists and on the web page you need some more patience. Right now you cannot bootstrap with xcode-2.3, because dpkg doesn't build. Apple broke the -force_flat_namespace flag that dpkg and some other packages are using. You can make dpkg build by editing the info file and removing that flag, but the consequences of this are not yet completely clear. -- Martin _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
