There are any number of reasons why a package may find a hand-built dependency while not being able to find one provided via Fink.
It would also be useful to know what versions of yaz, yazpp, and kbib were successful for you. One thing that I _can_ tell you is that it is very uncommon for the developer of a package also to maintain it for Fink: most of our packages are maintained by people with no connection to the developers. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list Fink-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
