But Fink's tar is in the dependency list of dpkg, so it should be used.
I think this is true only when fink calls dpkg, because fink does some
path munging first. However I just tried this:
sudo dtrace -n 'syscall::execve:entry { self-path = copyinstr(arg0);
} syscall::execve:return / arg0 == 0
Looks very cool! A few minor quibbles:
* The 'Sort order' field seems meaningless. The only option is
'Descending', but the results are always sorted ascending by name

Ah, how silly of me, of course I need to specify g++-3.3 on tiger.
That or pass -fabi-version=1. Sorry for the confusion! My intro to this
kinda sucked before, so according to what we know now, these are some
examples of what should work and

if upgrading from 10.3 - 10.4 will will need to set abi-version to 0
I'm not sure but I think this will work.
I strongly suspect this will not work. -fabi-version=0 is equivalent to
-fabi-version=the maximum supported ABI version for this g++. So on

Thanks Lars.
I guess once we have this, for each package we'll need to:

Perl usually discourages this form, since if someone could convince
$basepath to bstart with it might do bad things.
Why not stick with this?

Hi folks,
Thanks to tonyarnold, the 'popt' package should no longer be required
for packages that use popt-shlibs to have proper localization. Packages
that Depend on popt despite it being BuildDependsOnly should no longer
do so.
So if you see fink warn about a package depending on popt,
Hi folks,
While I agree with dmacks that we can't really automate this, I still
think it's important to deal with. I think that if we support a perl
version, we ideally want every variant to support that version. There
are a few ways this could be accomplished:
1. Usually it's not considered

Is this different from using the -single-module linker flag? The
latter is often recommended for problems with static initializers.

Hi folks,
As some of you have noticed, Mozilla will not build with Xorg. This is
because it uses a new version of freetype which removed a formerly
deprecated API.
I have a version of mozilla in my experimental dir that is patched to
use the replacement API. It should build with Xorg, and it
