fink does that already as part of the virtual package system. The issue is that for fink-0.38.4 the tests were modified to treat Xquartz as installed if /opt/X11 is present. The hope was that maintainers would modify their packages not to use lines like --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib in configuring their builds. Unfortunately that hasn’t happened. Instead, I’m going to revert the change, and therefore mandate that /usr/X11R6 be present for the X11 virtual packages to be installed. Currently, because of the historical development of our X11 virtual packages, this will change error messages about missing headers to messages that the ‘x11-dev’ virtual package is nonexistent—which is also not particularly transparent to users. It may be possible to adjust the X11 virtual package code to have the packages be available but not installed instead of nonexistent, but that’s going to take more time. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list Fink-users@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.macosx.fink.user Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
