At the moment I have xfree86 (4.2) working great with fink via
system-xfree86 . I am about to change to xtools . Is there an easy way
to do this ? Most fink packages rely on some version of x windows and I
can't install xtools without first removing xfree86! It's a chicken and
egg story...Any
hi alex,
it seems that your download was incomplete or just the file corrupted. I
tried it and it works. Fetch the file again by typing "fink fetch

btw:
"fink --help" gives you an helpscreen and under

the problem is that the package don't exist anymore (updated to version
2.5.2).
I had this problem befor also.
Question to the developer:
Isn't it possible to generate an extra error message by curl when the

Hi,
There's a "case" issue with pygtk-0.6.8-2 (and pygtk-0.6.9, but
that one's not in fink yet).
The source tarball includes files called ./pygtk/GTK.py and
./pygtk/gtk.py. HFS+ (the native file system under Mac OS),
however, is case-*insensitive*, and thinks that GTK.py and gtk.py
are the same

Try this: remove the .xinitrc file from your home directory (you might
want to back it up somewhere) and supply a .twmrc file. There is a
system-wide file under:
/etc/X11/twm/system.twmrc
you can use this (along with many helpful webpages) to customize your own
.twmrc file. This has worked we
it was just busy, too many connections, I'm sure it was a like 5 minute

Jeff,
Thanks very much for the reply! That does easy my mind a lot.
And thanks for pointing out the "dpkg --listfiles" command I never
knew about that one. Some of these probably should be incorporated
into fink, since I've been using fink while being totally ignorant of
the "under the hood"

I've had it installed (but not currently) and didn't see any changes in my
ability to compile. My interpretation of the description is that installing
the packages doesn't remove your standard compiler, but adds g77 to it
instead. Maybe Jeff Whitaker, as maintainer, can comment further on this.

Hi,
So far, I have resisted installing any fink packages that break the

1) Do a 'printenv PATH' to show your whole PATH: your init file adds to
the system default PATH, as does init.csh, so there's more than what you

What Martin is saying is that your problem is that twm crashes at launch, so
