At some point they introduced the option ignorecase = false which permits case-sensitive syncing with 2.32.52 (and probably earlier as well, I don't remember). But with 2.40.16 they "fixed" the behaviour to always refuse to sync such files to MacOS. I think this is likely to get sorted out, the mailing list has a related discussion where this behaviour was present even when syncing linux file systems, due to a cut and paste error in the code. > You might see if you can rebuild lablgtk2 and then try your unison-gtk > update.

I'll try that when I next try to build it (hopefully with the case sensitivity issue resolved). Apologies for the noise to the other maintainers. -- Viv ________________________________________________ Dr Viv Kendon http://quantum.leeds.ac.uk/~viv tel: +44 113 343 4864 Physics and Astronomy Quantum Information Group University of Leeds ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list Fink-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
