It was someting of a leap in my mind to presume that 'fink install foo bar' where foo depends:bar would call dpkg -i for bar before foo, given that they are both installed by the end of the fink run. Testing, however, finds that fink does the Right Thing here. Objection withdrawn. So why do you *ever* do '-x xfontconfig' in your *Script? dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
