Re: [Fink-users] problem installing packages on Leopard
John Wallace wrote: Hi, I'm having trouble with Fink on 10.5 (Leopard) on my brand-new black Macbook with 2.4 GHz Intel dual-core processor. I installed Fink on OS X 10.5, compiling from source, and seemed to have no problems doing that. However, when I try to install packages, Fink invariably fails. (I have correctly installed X11 and Xtools 3.0 for Leopard.) I have both stable and unstable enabled in fink.conf. First, after installing Fink, I updated Fink with the command: fink selfupdate-rsync Then, I tried installing all of KDE with the command: fink install bundle-kde-ssl Everything downloaded correctly, then partially compiled, stopping with the error message, Failed: phase compiling: djvulibre-3.5.20-1001 failed. Before reporting any errors, please run fink selfupdate and try again. From this little information it is, of course, impossible to guess what went wrong. Among the numerous possibilities, there is, however, a bug in Apple's X11 that will bite everyone in your situation, and you could try if fixing it will help with your problems. It is described, for example, in this thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.macosx.fink.user/25864/focus=25865 You can try to fix it with the following command: sudo perl -pi.bak -e 's|2.0.0|2.1.0|' /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.la If this helps in your situation, we should probably have a FAQ entry about it (although the bug might get fixed with one of the next Apple SoftwareUpdates anyway). The reason why this bug does not get more attention is that it bites only those who start with OSX 10.5.2 preinstalled. If you have a machine that came with 10.5.1 or earlier and then upgrade to 10.5.2, you won't see it. -- Martin - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

I looked at the info file, but it does not mention a dependecy on xfree86 but only on x11. Here is the very brief build log: You looked at the wrong info file, most likely. In fontconfig2-dev-10.5.info, which is the one corresponding to rev -102, there is a dependency on system-xfree86-dev (= 2:7.2-1).

Did you set proxies via fink configure ? According to the Environment Variables section of info cvs for the version which comes with Leopard (assuming that's what you're on, too), you might want to set CVS_PROXY_PORT to match your http proxy: `$CVS_PROXY_PORT' Used in client-server mode to set the port to use when accessing a server via a web proxy, if the port is not specified in the CVSROOT.

Re: [Fink-users] rsync
cvs and rsync are currently the only options. We don't have a snapshot .info tarball for Leopard, but that's not a bad option to implement. Stephen M Jones wrote: Still the same problem. Are cvs and rsync the only ways? Can I find a tarball with all the package info files somewhere? I can only find one with the base packages.
