However, that being said, the issue is that somehow that .pyc file has encoded the fink install directory, e.g. /sw/src/fink-build/root-gnowsys-<version> into itself, which is bad because that directory _shouldn't_ exist normally if the package is correctly installed. To see what's going on, we'd have to see the .info file and the build log (if the latter isn't too big). Also, as a side note, python24 is deprecated, so if you're working on this package, then you should target python25 or, better yet, python26. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
