(Sorry, forgot to cc the list in my response.) Hi Alexander,
Running dpkg -c /opt/fink/debs/ocaml-findlib_1.1.2-1_darwin-i386.deb | grep lib/ocaml produces -rw-r--r-- root/admin 1175 2008-07-18 15:31 ./opt/lib/ocaml which leads me to conclude that lib/ocaml is indeed not a directory. I've run "fink -l rebuild ocaml-findlib" and placed the resulting log at http://www.met.rdg.ac.uk/~swr05npk/fink-build-log_ocaml-findlib_1.1.2-1_2008.07.18-15.30.48 Perhaps this line shows where things are going wrong? test 1 -eq 0 || cp topfind /opt/src/fink.build/root-ocaml-findlib-1.1.2-1/opt/lib/ocaml Since the opt/lib/ocaml directory isn't created (that I can see), the build process appears to be copying a file "topfind" to a file "ocaml" in opt/lib. Does that make any sense? Thanks for your help.
