Actually, that is deliberate. Fink can install those two together, and they can coexist just fine. In my previous experiments, if a user made a choice like that, fink would just die (or rather dpkg would) and refuse to install conflicting pkgs. Until we improve fink to handle the "Conflicts" field properly (like for example, not asking a user to make choices which will conflict), this will have to suffice. -- Dave _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
