Re: [Fink-devel] Heureka! (Was: Fink-0.18.0 doesn't compile)
This could be easily tested with a disk image, for example. Mount a read/write disk image, get info, choose 'ignore permissions' (looks like it is default) and try to install fink.

[Fink-devel] Heureka! (Was: Fink-0.18.0 doesn't compile)
From: Matthias Neeracher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I was also having problems with one of my machines yesterday (I didn't report them yet because I wanted to do some investigation myself). Maybe fink 0.18.0 doesn't work on machines whose owners are named "Matthias". Upon closer examination, it turned out that I had disabled Permissions on the Volume that fink was on. Apparently, that used tow ork for earlier versions of fink, but no longer for 0.18.0 Maybe the test could issue a clearer warning for this case?
