[Fink-devel] failure building gtk-perl-pm560-0.7009-1

2003-08-17 Thread Neil Spring
I have no experience trying to grok perl-based makefile spaghetti, and I can't figure out why the gtk-config cflags are not passed to the compiler when working on gtktypexp in the GdkPixbuf directory. It does seem to get quite far before deciding that it can't continue. The last several

I've submitted a new package to the package tracker to work around the problems compiling the sawfish window manager on Xfree 4.3 and freetype2. Please give it a try and let me know if you have any problems. You can get it at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/

Re: [Fink-devel] the gcc 3.3 upgrade

2003-08-17 Thread David R. Morrison
After a discussion on IRC last night, I have a completely different proposal to make about the gcc 3.3 upgrade. In the new proposal we make a new distribution, perhaps called 10.2a, which is for packages running under 10.2 but compiled with gcc 3.3. Peter O'Gorman and others believe that version

It's possible that the problem here is the SourceForge delay in CVS: it can take up to 24 hours for a file to propagate from the live CVS tree to the backup CVS which is accessible to anonymous users (and through the web interface). -- Dave

One thing I forgot to say. Even with my new strategy, we need to have fink verify that the correct version of gcc has been selected when compiling is being done. The overwhelming opinion on IRC last night was that fink should NOT reset your gcc selection. Instead, fink should query the gcc
