Hi


Recently I upgraded the mac to 10.12.3. I have since tried to do a "fink selfupdate" not failed, I am not sure if the two are related


bash-3.2$ fink
Fink 0.41.1
bash-3.2$ fink selfupdate
Before changing your selfupdate method to 'rsync', you must install
the Xcode Command Line Tools package from
http://developer.apple.com (after free registration),
or via the Downloads tab of the Xcode Preferences.
Failed: Selfupdate method 'rsync' cannot be used
bash-3.2$

I have also upgraded Xcode to the latest version but fink did not seem to recognise it. Can someone tell me whether the problem is with the Xcode or rsync?


Thanks

Robert


Hi Robert,

Pretty sure the problem is with your Xcode Command Line Tools package. You'll find the appropriate instructions for you OS here:
http://finkproject.org/download/

Under:


     Xcode Tools/Developer Tools

To build packages from source, which Fink currently requires on supported OS versions, you will need to install the Developer Tools.

Go to the Apple Developer site <http://developer.apple.com> to download a newer version (and any updates) after free registration.

Recommended Developer Tools versions by OS 10.9 The Command Line Tools for Mavericks - Late October 2013; optionally Xcode 5.0.1 The Command Line Tools can be downloaded via the |xcode-select --install| command, Xcode's Preferences or in a separate package. 10.8 The Command Line Tools for Mountain Lion - October 2013 ; optionally Xcode 5.0.1 The Command Line Tools can be downloaded via Xcode's Preferences or in a separate package.
10.7    The Command Line Tools for Lion - April 2013; optionally Xcode 4.6.3
The Command Line Tools can be downloaded via Xcode's Preferences or in a separate package. 10.6 Xcode 3.2.6 (Xcode 4.2 is also available for some paid Apple developer accounts)
10.5    Xcode 3.1.4
10.4    Xcode 2.5


Best regards,
Robert
