Hello, I am pretty sure that I saw somewhere a note about upgrading from 10.7 to 10.8 but I cannot find it anymore. I apologize therefore in advance if my question is a duplicate (and I will appreciate a pointer to the first occurrence...).
I am contemplating upgrading my machine to Mac OS 10.8. It appears that Fink can be upgraded in place. After the OS upgrade I will therefore do the following: 1. Reinstall the Xcode command-line tools (the 10.8 package this time) 2. Install XQuartz 3. fink reinstall fink fink install perl5123-core # is this needed at all? fink selfupdate fink update-all 4. Make sure that all the files outside the Fink base directory are there by doing something like this: fink reinstall `fink list -it daemonic xinitrc | cut -f2` fink reinstall `fink --exclude-trees=virtual list -it passwd | \ grep -v "\[virtual" | cut -f2` fink reinstall `fink --exclude-trees=virtual list -it | \ grep -v "\[virtual" | cut -f2 | xargs fink dumpinfo -finfofile | \ cut -d: -f2 | xargs grep -l "[dD]aemonic" | sort | uniq | \ xargs grep -h -m 1 Package | cut -d: -f2` Is there anything I am missing and/or doing wrong? This is my main machine so I just want to be doubly-sure that the upgrade is not going to break things... Many thanks in advance.
