Right, because it's old junk which got installed by something else that you installed, rather than being part of your system. Temporarily rename /usr/local and your bootstrap should work. It's extremely difficult if not impossible to hide /usr/local from the build tools, so we generally recommend that people do this _any_ time they build with Fink. Your selfupdate didn't work because your bootstrap didn't actually finish. We don't have different recommendation messages for bootstrap installs and normal installs. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DreamFactory - Open Source REST & JSON Services for HTML5 & Native Apps OAuth, Users, Roles, SQL, NoSQL, BLOB Storage and External API Access Free app hosting.
