Sorry about that, it seems as though I sent that to David only.
Quick update, I got a little bit further until python22 started to
give me problems, complaining about and error building
"Python/mactoolboxglue.o" but since I didn't have that problem before,
I'm guessing that it was another weirdness in the order I installed
things so another wipe later and I try again. This time I get it to
fail on libshout4 again.
Thinking back on what I did differently between these two attempts,
the source of my problem could be one of the other dependencies that
was compiled when I tried to install gst-plugins. Or it could be the
version of libogg that I had installed.
You see, the previous time I wiped out my fink install I installed the
binary version of libogg (1.1) rather than compile from source.
Whereas this time, and the first time, I compiled from source to get
libogg-1.1.2. So I decided that this would be where I try next, since
it's simpler to do this than to try and discover which of the many
gst-plugins dependencies, if indeed one was a problem.
So after much fiddling with fink trying to get it to forget about the
packages I compiled (which ended up needing me to wipe out the
/sw/fink/10.4-transitional/unstable directory, updating and resyncing)
I installed the binary package and tried libshout4 again.
This time it worked (again). Now I'm back to installing the 218
package dependencies for gst-plugins(-dev).
Wish me luck.
Simon
