Hello All!

Some time ago I have installed (IIRC name) system-xfree86 place holder for X11 package from Apple.

But now - just made 'apt-get update' - I cannot find it anymore.


<AKH> system-xfree86 is now a virtual package, which is supposed to show up automatically if X11 is installed correctly. It appears that the installer sometimes leaves out files. There's a FAQ on this: http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-packages.php#apple-x11-wants- xfree86


So I cannot install freeciv: it requires imlib, which requires giflib, which requires X11 - but does not accept X11 from Apple I already have installed.

If any one can clarify what is going here and how to install freeciv to use with my local X11 server - it would be just great.

I cannot really get this dependency: packages must depend on xfree86-shlibs, but not on xfree86 itself. After all X11 is networked protocol.

P.S. cc me please - I'm not subscribed.

<AKH> By the way,I assume you have the XCode Tools installed, and Fink Commander just thinks you're using the 2001 version.
