From fink's standpoint, what was missing was literally just the "com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables" entry in the system's receipt database. All fink does is parse the output of "pkgutil --pkgs" to look for that. The "xcode" virtual package can come into being on 10.9 only if that receipt is present. 10.8 and 10.7 use com.apple.pkg.DeveloperToolsCLI instead. "xcode-select --install" downloaded and installed the tools, and registered the com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables receipt in the database, so fink was satisfied. It's probably desirable behavior that you got blocked, as it turns out, since the command-line build tools for older OS X versions tend not to work completely properly on newer ones -- a proud tradition dating back to 10.1. :-) -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that developers love is also attractive to malware creators.
