Well, it should, at least the kernel runs 64-bit applications and gcc produces 64-bit code. I had no idea that fink is not supposed to support such. Beside, the 64-bit fink announcement precedes quite substantially the aparition of 10.6. As a matter of fact the official announcement <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.macosx.fink.devel/17705> is older than 10.6 and does mention 10.5 explicitly. In any event, most things appear to compile fine, though I am only (and roughly) in the middle of the process of restoring my fink environment. As for Firefox, I am going to try and see is there is a simple fix to the error, but first I need to find out how can I resume the build process without the unpacking phase (à la Gentoo's "ebuild <package> compile install qmerge" which re-uses the build directory so that it takes into consideration source modifications--if anybody cares to summarize the way of doing it it will be much appreciated). I am willing of course to test any fix that might come my way. Cheers, Stefan -- If it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't.
