This looks like a bug in Fink's virtual perl package: It "provides" html-tree-pm588, but as you report, Apple's perl-5.8.8 in Leopard does not really provide the corresponding contents (version 5.8.6 in Tiger did). There is, however, also a "real" html-tree-pm588 package. Run fink install html-tree-pm588 and see if this helps. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel
