Yeah, I know.. It¹s really weird.
I have tried to install both packages apart from each other in an empty /sw
but now ./bootstrap refuses to go on:
---
ERROR: '/sw' exists and contains installed software. Refusing to install
there.
Please choose the path where Fink should be installed. Note that you will be
able to use the binary distribution only if you choose '/sw'. [/sw3]
---
The filesystem I use is Mac OS Extended (Journaled), but the installer
didn¹t complain at all during earlier installations on the same machine as
on others. My other Mac¹s are also running Fink on Extended (Journaled),
also built from source without those errors.
Is there any way to tell the Fink-installer (./bootstrap) to
--force-overwrite¹?
I really don¹t know what the problem is...
