$ fink desc cctools Scanning package description files.......... Information about 7517 packages read in 7 seconds. cctools-622-1: [virtual package representing the developer tools] This package represents the C/C++/ObjC developer tools provided by Apple. If it does not show as installed, you can download it from Apple at: . http://connect.apple.com/ . (free registration required) . Web site: http://www.finkproject.org/faq/usage-general.php#virtpackage Specifically, cctools 622 corresponds to Xcode 2.4.1, so you're missing some or all of the Xcode install on that box. "fink-virtual-pkgs --debug" may help you see what's lacking. (by the way, installing gcc42 wouldn't have helped you, because Fink is set up _not_ to use anything but Xcode for compiling) -- Alexander K.
