...until user installs perl5100 and then module-build-pm5100-bin, and then removes module-build-pm5100-bin (the actual one). Now we've got dpkg (and therefore fink) thinking module-build-pm5100-bin is installed due to Provides, but *no* config_data at all (for whatever purpose it would be used and expected to exist via dependencies). We really need to figure out whether config_data is used directly by users (i.e., must be in PATH so can run as command) or is just invoked by module-build-pmXXX itself (in which case it can be renamed or moved to be orthogonal pathname among the different packages that would have it). dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel
