Yes, %p. As Alex said: Check out the packaging manual: http://www.finkproject.org/doc/packaging/index.php Using an existing package as model is a very good idea, but you really *need* to read the packaging documentation, too. > 2) > The line which temporary sets a symbolic link (sudo ln -s /sw / > Developer...) is needed for the GraphicsMagick to compile.

The OS version dependency is no problem, because every Fink package is in a tree that concerns only one OS version (this is supposed to change with 10.5, but then there is a new "Distribution" field that takes care of this). The dependency on the /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk stuff is more problematic, but I am not convinced you really want to do this. This is usually only needed if you build universal binaries or binaries for a different architecture from what you are building on, and this won't work in Fink.

But this does not mean that they are right. Did you try to compile this without these CFLAGS and LDFLAGS? -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
