After installing the new version of clisp (2.46-2), the updated maxima would not install. I got the following message:
Reading buildlock packages... /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait -i /sw/fink/dists/unstable/crypto/binary-darwin- powerpc/maxima_5.16.3-2_darwin-powerpc.deb (Reading database ... 257364 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace maxima 5.16.3-2 (using .../maxima_5.16.3-2_darwin- powerpc.deb) ... Unpacking replacement maxima ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of maxima: maxima depends on clisp (= 2.46-1); however: Version of clisp on system is 2.46-2. /sw/bin/dpkg: error processing maxima (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: maxima ### execution of /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 1 Failed: can't install package maxima-5.16.3-2 I checked the maxima.info file, and it says that maxima depends upon clisp-2.46.2 : Depends: << clisp (= 2.46-2), gnuplot | gnuplot-nox, libgettext3-shlibs, libiconv, libncurses5-shlibs, libsigsegv-shlibs (>= 1:2.5-3), libsigsegv-shlibs (<< 1:2.5-9999), readline5-shlibs, recode, rlwrap (>= 0.28-1) There must be something else that I can do to resolve this conundrum? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
