Hi, I am trying to install Boost 1.35.0_2 (OSX 10.4.11) which does not appear FinkCommander. I have downloaded Boost_1_35_0.tar.gz and put it in the /sw/src directory. but when I use the following:
fink install boost_1_35_0.tar.gz I get this error: Information about 4414 packages read in 2 seconds. Failed: no package found for specification 'boost_1_35_0.tar.gz'! Can someone please tell what I am doing wrong. I also need to install mpeg4ip and mkvtoolnix which are also not in FinkCommander. I did try to use 'Fink configure' but I wasn't sure how to tell it where to search. I have managed to install Boost using MacPorts, but I get an error configure: error: Could not link against boost_regex-boost_regex-mt ! when I try to install mkvToolnix. So I assume not all the files are being installed.I looked at the this location 'http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/ browse.php'
and found mkvtoolnix-nox and mkvtoolnix-qt. I also found several versions of Boost with the likes of python25, python25-shlibs and systempython etc., How can I get FinkCommander to see the files from this location, and assuming that I can use one of these Boost files which of the many options can I use. The same goes for the mkv files I'm not sure what the nox or qt indicate. Thanks, Terrence
